I would like to add a field to my submit page so an avitar image can be uploaded along with the tutorial. I do not know where to start with this process. Can anyone help me out? Page is http://www.tutorialcollection.com/submit/
Some things you will need to look at include: - add enctype="multipart/form-data" to your form tag - add an input element of type "file" to your form - PHP's $_FILES array where uploaded stuff is accessed in scripts - PHP's image handling functions, which require the GD library Googling on any of these should get you going.
There is a good script at http://www.sitepoint.com/article/php-gallery-system-minutes This allows you to do a photo gallery. If you download the code and ignore the photo gallery bit then you can use the image submission page to upload an avatar and resize it to what you need.
