Installing & Using 4Images

Installing 4Images Gallery

This one has be the easiest one out of the three galleries mentioned to use. Looking through it, everything is pretty simple and I’m sure if you’re into just uploading pictures into your server more then anything else, then this the scripts for you.

Installing…

In your cpanel locate Fantastico and click on it. Once inside, scroll down to the category ‘Image Galleries’, 4Images is the first one to choose from. Clicking on it will take you to the overview page where you are able to install, upgrade, and delete gallery accounts. Click on new installation and fill out the forms. That’s all! Now just follow what the installation instructions and you’re ready to load up your new gallery!

Using 4Images Gallery

Once you login, you will notice only three links on the side-bar that at first don’t help much. This is NOT the admin panel. The link for the admin panel is located at the very bottom of the page. There is where you will need to go in order to update the gallery’s configurations and upload YOUR images. The side panel on the side at the beginning, if were wondering, is only there for AFTER you have actual content up and need some easy editing.

4Images is a pretty basic image gallery script that anyone can use. The only real feature that amazed me with the script was the backup databases feature under General in the admin panel, although in the end you could always make the same database in your MySQL database Cpanel. So, like I said pretty basic, but good for those who aren’t into all the technical stuff and just want to post their images up in an easy-to-use software.
