Three newbie questions

[theotg]

Hi all,

I have just installed coppermine for evaluation on my site (currently using JAlbum on http://oren.thesarids.net)

I have three things I couldn't find:
1) I sometimes post pictures in forums, so I'd like to use hotlinking, but all the threads I found are about blocking it. The problem is - I couldn't find how to do that in the first place. How do I get a direct link to my photos?

2) I'd like to allow usage of zoomify on panoramas, but am not sure how to incorporate it. Any experience on that?

3) Can I allow the user viewing my pictures in multiple sizes? If so - how?

Thanks a lot,
Oren

Can I nest albums?

Thanks,

Do a right-click, properties. Pretty basic skill imo. There's a mod or two as well that will display the image URL below the image, even embedd into bbcode if needed. One of the plugins that come to mind: copy/ paste bbcode img URL below intermediate image v1.1

2) I'd like to allow usage of zoomify on panoramas, but am not sure how to incorporate it. Any experience on that?

Never heard of that, so the asnwer is "no". There's another zoom plugin available though: CPGAnis Dynamic Pan and Zoom plugin for full size images.

3) Can I allow the user viewing my pictures in multiple sizes? If so - how?

Yes, see Download Resized - resize img to user defined values and offer download

Can I nest albums?

No.

Thanks for your answers, and I'll keep to one question at a time in the future. Sorry, just didn't want to flood...
