Hi all,
Ynneb, First I would like to say great job. The web site is looking great! Thanks so much for the forum work! (I hate Yahoo groups).
Art and others, Simply amazing software, thank you all.
That being said, a couple of comments about the site. Forums are great, wiki's are great, gallery is great. The only bummer is all the passwords and user names for all of them.
You have implemented lots of great features as standalone items, at the cost of a single user name / pw.
If I might be so bold as to make a suggestion, I would recommend that you take a look at a CMS system to tie all of this together under one roof. I have used in the past PHP-Nuke, and in my opinion it is exactly what you need. It has all of the features you have implemented as separates rolled into one. It is simpler to manage and has the added benefit of a common login and password. You already have PHP and My-SQL working and that is the toughest part. With nuke you can get "blocks" and add ons for just about everything you could want. Upload, download, gallery, chat, wiki, forums, mail, vote, feedback, newsletters and about a zillion others, all for free or little money. You can also strip it down to just what you want or need.
Any way, just a suggestion.
here are some links of you want to learn a little more
PHP-Nuke: This is the main site, this is the download for the core.
http://phpnuke.org/Nukefiles: This is a great site with a TON of blocks and plugins, and a great idiots guide to nuke.
