Add capability to upload image(s) to reviews. #18

Instead of having to copy the images to the server and then reference them. Users with permissions to add new reviews or edit reviews should be able to upload images and have the review module automatically create thumbnails.

Ideally images would be able to have descriptions to give context.

How many images per review do you prefer?

damon18 commented 11 years ago

Ideally the number of possible images, the sizes of the thumbnails, previews, and "full size" (re-sized from what was uploaded) would all be configurable in the backend of the module. There are many possible uses for this module so any set amount and sizes of images would be guessing what people might want.

If you have to pick a number I would suggest nine (9) since that is on the high-end of what people would generally have the patience to upload and nine thumbnails can be arranged in a grid. I have a lot of history with users uploading images and when offering the possibility of nine only maybe 20% use all of them.

@Portugao Are you asking me about MUImage? I haven't seen it so didn't have an opinion. I'll check it out.

Portugao commented 11 years ago

MUImage is a module for images to organize in albums. To have the capability to include an album it would give the flexibility to have each number of images.

damon18 commented 11 years ago

As long as the image configuration can be done with the Reviews backend admin (image sizes/resizes, number of images, who can upload) then it wouldn't matter that much.

It would be a dream if ALL images in a website could be managed and located together.

We have the capability to upload 1 image now. Maybe we extend later.....
