Hi everyone. I'm in a bit of a jam cause of course, i'm a noob! Like many websites, including myspace.com, I would like to be able to insert a text box with that browse button to the right of it so users can hit the browse button, select a picture from their computer, and upload it to my site. I don't want the pictures that they upload to automatically appear on my site for everyone to see. How do I do that?!?!? I don't even know if G2 does that or if I can even do it without G2. Help please! Actually, I just noticed at bottom of this page that it has that "attachments feature...that's what I want.

yep, you're truly lost. but, among the many features of Gallery, it supports multiple methods of uploading media-types from jpeg and png images to AVI and WMV files (requires ffmpeg module). if you're in need of a web hosting provider, head over to http://gallery.menalto.com/wiki/Web_Hosting_Referral_Page
- read through http://codex.gallery2.org/ - then, come back here if you need assistance. :)
