   Few facts

   1. I have my own server
   2. I can upload pictures where I want
   3. I want to change place where pictures will be put because I already have place for just like that occasion
   4. I already have working NextGEN Gallery with few thousand pictures and it work very well in case how it display pictures on my blog
   5. I put all my pictures in one folder and than from NextGEN I put path and scan for images – everything else is automatic – I mean searching and than latter making thumbnails
   6. I will like almost same to do with PhotoSmash but I cant do that
   7. When I go to upload images in already created gallery in PhotoSmash, I don’t see any images – and I don’t know how I can solve that – I spent hour – maybe more trying to understand where is problem, but I didn’t succeed to do that
   8. Like I already sad I have access to mysql and I can change whatever I want – put folder where I want or whatever I need to do to make this working
   9. I need gallery of pictures to bee for pool –few special cases – I will continue to use NexGEN in future except PhotoSmash isn’t better – - I don’t have problem with that, but I need to solve first above mentioned problems

   PS I have put pictures in folder and alone in folder pointed to be for images – but not any success seeing them. Only one picture I seen (and I have more than 4000 of them) and that is only one put into one post – If I remember it is not in Gallery.

   Hi Spel,

   PhotoSmash may not do what you're hoping it will do.

   Here are a couple of things that may help:

   1) PhotoSmash can use the standard WordPress media library images. These are images that you upload in Posts or that you upload in bulk through the Media functions in WordPress Admin. After you get them uploaded there, you can Import them to PhotoSmash.

   2) Unfortunately, you only have 2 choices with where the photos are stored, and these depend on whether you're using the Standard WordPress upload functionality (see PhotoSmash Settings/Uploading tab/ "Use built-in WordPress upload functions" option ). If you do use the built-in WordPress upload functions, it will store the images wherever you told WordPress to store all of your uploaded images. This is controlled in WP admin in: Settings / Miscellaneous / "Store uploads in this folder"

   If you already have NextGen Gallery working, that may be a better option for your situation if the above doesn't help.

   Cheers,
   Byron
