Title: Can I change the upload directory.
Post by: cdrake on April 14, 2005, 10:25:32 pm: I am wanting to change the upload directory to something like images.domain.com instead of domain.com/gallery/albums/etc

How can this be done if possible?

Given that I am still confused with what you are trying to do. I use the subdomain gallery.krkeegan.com. I still upload to /home/krkeegan/www/gallery/album but from the website side it appears that my images are served from gallery.krkeegn.com/album.

The short answer is yes you could change your album directory. But it might be helpful to know why you want to do that.
