I'm trying to create a non profit site where people can post photos an info about their missing dogs.
So users should be able to post Pictures, descriptions and contact information.
This I'm doing because my own pets are missing, and there is no place to post this kind of requests.

I hope a site like this helps someone find their pets, and of course mine.

Thanks for any help!

Re: best module for this: please look

You could probably use any of the image gallery modules -- like MyAlbum -- withought any modification. Users can be entitled to upload their own photographs and each posting has a link to the user profile of the person who uploaded the photo. The user could put whatever contact information he or she wanted there. An email address would be perfect.

With a little bit of work on the blocks provided with the module you could simplify things a bit for the users. For example, instead of the default block to display the image and information you could hightlight the contact information of the user who uploaded the photograph.

With more work you could hack the module to provide fields for all the key information that you wanted to capture.

I would just try the module as provided and see how it works.

This is a XOOPS site that does what you want:

http://www.lost-doggies.com

They are using duplicates of myalbum.

xcgal has the advantage of

1- can send ecards of pictures good for circulating lost dogs info

2- customisable fields in the description part.

3- excellent user control of upload photos.

4- batch uploads for admin

5- slide shows

IMHO better display options
