Koppermine

We knew that just creating the API won’t any good to Coppermine. So the next bigger task in hand was to create a client using that API to show the world that what we have made is gold. Since we use Linux at our workplace and I always use the latest Fedora Core (5 at the time of writting this) we decided to build a KDE Client.

Choosing a name was not so difficult. Most or every KDE application starts with K and we had a direct choice of replacing C with K and that was the birth of Koppermine.

The biggest challenge for me was to learn KDE programming. At the time of starting we just knew that there is something called as KDevelelop which we can use to build application and QT-Designer to design the forms. We are very thankful to the KDE-India list who helped us a lot and answered my newbie questions with patience.

While writting this Koppermine is stable and enjoying its release 1.1

    I think 4images is better than Coppermine

    It depends on your requirements. Featurewise, Coppermine and 4images are similar and in popularity Coppermine is far more ahead than 4images.

    Hello there

    I’m currently developing a program that generate signitures for people to use in forums, etc. I am trying to work out how the Coppermine API works (and is used in Koppermine) to see if I can get all this working in .net. If I can, I want to add it to my application and then (possibly) write a Coppermine client for Windows but I’m completely stuck on how the API works as there’s no docs.

    I’m not really a PHP developer either so I’m a bit stuck and was wondering if you’d be kind enough to point me in the right direction. it would be much appreciated.

    Thanks
    Kurt
