ASP.NET Image Gallery, Uploader & Thumbnailer Part 2
Welcome to part 2 of our demonstration image gallery creator, image uploader and thumbnailer application built in ASP.NET. As we’ve seen so far, we’ve been able to provide thumbnailing and image sharpening methods using built in objects that are part of the .NET framework.
To summarize, in part 1 we created an ASP.NET application called ImgThumbail and setup a folder structure for uploading images to the web server. We then added an ImageUtil class which can receive HttpPostedFile objects and create thumbnails for the images returning the binary content which can be written to the file system. We also implemented a method which uses a math algorithm to sharpen the image.
In part 2, we’ll continue building upon our application by developing the user interface and putting our ImageUtil class into action. We’ll build a web page which allows a user to upload an image to the web server, and then display those images dynamically in an HTML table constructed on-the-fly through code.
Once again Visual Studio.NET is required for this part of the tutorial, and both VB.NET and C# code samples will be provided.
