If I pay for some automatic-uploading software, would anyone be interested in writing it for me?

Hi there,

I've scoured this forum and put out posts about automatic-uploading from certain folders on your computer but to no avail. Instead, I've decided that I'm to pay someone to design me a piece of auto-uploading software. If anyone would be interested in writing something like this (max ~$300) I'd like to speak to you. If it can be web-based that'd be amazing. Essentially something like Gallery Remote (in that users can log in and select albums to upload to and folders to upload from) except reduced down and automated. E.g. every 5 mins images are imported into the designated gallery.

There are scripts that upload to Gallery - can you run one of them from cron?

hi alec,

i've looked into this but my software is going to startup on, well, startup of windows and quietly add photos as they appear in a certain folder.

i'm going to go through rentacoder.com and just get this done, i have a feeling so many people would love this.

I don't really follow the architecture you're looking for, then - it needs to be the webserver that adds the photos, which is where you'd use the cron job. The client pc just has to upload them to a drop folder on the webserver. Which you can again do with the AT command scheduler service on windows.
