I am very new to website design so please bear with me. I am getting a website developed with DNN and am not sure DNN will be able to performa a function that I need it to. It was suggested of me to check in to Gallery. I need to know if Gallery will be able to perform the functions described below. I basically need my website users to be able to save information from their photos on my website. I prefer not to save the photographs themselves just the data from each. This information will be saved and available to develop charts from. Here is what I’m thinking:

• User has logged into my website.
• User needs to upload information from new images into website.
• User selects “browse” button
• User opens folder of new images from their pc
• User selects all of the images from their pc
• The software opens up a viewer allowing the user to view the first image from folder.
• A drop down menu is opened for the user to select what is in each image
• User selects what is in each image from the drop down menu then clicks “NEXT”
• The software reads and determines whether the date & time stamp of that image is prior to any previous image saved by this user.
o If image is prior to any previous image saved then the data is deleted.
o If image is post any previous image saved then the data is saved including information keyed in from the drop down menu regarding that image
• The saved data is stored and available to use to develop charts from. The charts will show what was in the photo as well as when the photo occurred.

Any help and or suggestions that would help me complete my project would be greatly appreciated.

What's DNN?

From what you describe, I've not seen anything for that. Gallery is used to host "your photos on your website". Gallery's main purpose is to display photos on a website.

Even the EXIF plugin for Gallery which can read that data, doesn't store any of that data in the database and even if it did, once you delete the photo, the data is removed.
