Website Design

I am very new to website design so please bear with me. I was told that DNN would be the best way but I am not convinced. 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 opens folder of new images.
• User selects all of the images
• The software opens up a viewer allowing the user to view the first image from folder.
• The drop down menu is opened for the user to select what is in each image. This is probably something I will need to put in.
• User selects what is in each image from the drop down menu then click “NEXT”
• The software reads and determines whether the date & time 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.
• The saved data is 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 would be greatly appreciated.

I don't mean to be cynical but if you're "very new to web design" then it will probably take years before you could write this from scratch, yourself.

Unless you have some major programming background?

Do some research in to php. It's linux-based so it's all free which will help a lot. Go get some cheap linux hosting for ten bucks a month and start messing around with php as the framework and mysql as the database engine.

Of course there are numurous paths you could take but it sounds like you need a starting point for the long journey ahead!
