1. With the downloads module that is given on XOOPS i installed it is there anyway i can add all files from a directory into the catagory without doing it one by one becuz i have some 8000 files to add and i dont wanta do it 1 by 1
2. How can i make it so that the user can change their themes is that possible
3. Can i make new themes myself and put them in XOOPS or do i just have to use the ones made
4. if i cant make them myself if i send somebody images and a site layout i already have will anybody offer to make my themes for me please thanx!

1.. there isn't a possibility as far as i know of.. myabe some1 could hack a batch upload..

2. use the theme block and enable it for registered users.. then in preferences general settings find where it says choose themes available for slection..

3. yes you can make any theme you like.. and release it to XOOPS or not.. that's where many of the themes came from (user contributions)

4. yes i'm sure there are many that could do that.. you would have to ask and wait for a reply tho..

the FAQ section and documentation have a lot of info on designing themes.. or you could look at how an existing theme is done and change that theme to how you want.. nothing is restricting you from converting or modifying other peoples themes. but be aware of copyrights on images (sometimes it's best to just drop the original author a message asking his permission to use their images even tho you are not using their actual theme)

If its media files, then the easiest way would be to ftp them up... a module like debaser cam, I think, scan a directory and add the contents to its listings...

Seems to me that you could pretty easily modify one of the photo gallery modules for this project. Check out myalbum, myalbum-P or one of the others, I think pretty much all of them have a batch upload option for images that you could alter...

[edit: I didn't know Debaser did that... if it does, that would be the better solution.]

debaser does indeed allow batch loads and even reads the ID3 tags of MP3 files, and creates categories for them based on those tags.
