Hello -
My website is
http://photoshowdown.com and is a photo competition website. -Currently getting backed-up from a few days ago.
I hoping to pay $100 to upgrade to the latest version of cppermine and get the data base connected to phpBB3. The latest version I had running was 3.0.7 and I tried to upgrade to 3.0.12 and it would no longer work due to the mysql version would no longer be serviced by my webhost 1and1.com.
I created the website in Dreamweaver and have been online for over 10 years. I've been using the coppermine gallery all that time and have love it, but some of the functionalities are gone. I really like it when someone left a comment on a photo they would receive an email regarding the comment.
I am happy at this point to just have the basics work. Have all the photo galleries that I created work and also be able to have new members register when I give them permission. In the past I have had massive spamming with open registration. Literally thousands of bogus members trying to sell viagra or some other product.
I have had much difficulty dealing with my webhost and I really would like someone who is totally knowledgeable with coppermine and phpbb3. This would help eliminate having them messing up the site. In the past I have had help set up the coppermine gallery and I should have updated much sooner, but financial problems and just being scared of screwing up the site has prevented me from doing it sooner.
My site is going through a back up at the moment to get me back to a few days ago when the site was working -except for new members trying to sign up. I tried to update the phpBB3 myself and it messed up everything. I just want to reconnect to my data base on get my members back.
I would like to do this as soon as possible. It would be great to have this accomplished in the next few days... If possible.
