Probably I'm doing something wrong. But when i sort my photo's on Date asc the files are not sorted on the exif date(taken-time).

Is this the correct setting or do i need to change something else as well to sort the photo's on time taken data ?

Have a link to your site please?

especially on page 4 and 5 you can see this.
picture img_3012.jpg is at page 4 but picture img_3011.jpg is at page 5.
they are taken almost immediately after each other.
Sorting is set on data asc.

btw you already got my login/pass in case you need it.

Oh right, well, there is no Exif date in your photos, so they are sorted by file date:

Image metadata
Model 	Canon DIGITAL IXUS 860 IS
Focal Length 	4.6 mm

That is all there is.

hmmm i feel embarrassed

Last week when you guys told me to resize my images i did with imagemagick and some how my exif date has disappeared.

I'll try to find my original photo's again.
thank you for taking the time and effort to take a look at it.

btw: a good feature for uploading images would be a resize feature as well.
That way when images are uploaded they are resized also with the given settings (like width and height)

regards,

Yes - First we would have to solve general server restrictions though. Most servers only provide enough "shared" memory for the GD extension to resize images at 1400px or smaller. Resizing larger images most often creates an error, so we will have to consider our options ...

Actually upload pre-sizing is nice idea, but I am afraid this would cause a wave of support questions like "why my 10MP photo can't be resized with my 8mb memory limit" ?

I'm sorry to re-open this case again but i'm still having some problems with the pictures.

If you look at page 2/3 and then the third picture you will notice it's picture img_3058.jpg, after that it's img_3050.jpg but picture 3050 is taken before 3058.
The sorting is on date ascending.

I have checked the 'picture taken' and it's in there now. So this could not be the problem this time.
Although Imagevue is not showing the data taken, if you download the picture and look at the date taken, it is in there
Could you please take another look at this ?

I downloaded images from your site, and they are being sorted correctly locally.
You having version with an exif bug it seems, because date is not displayed when you rollover an image.

Just redownload .zip from our site and overwrite imagevue/include directory (or better yet everything).

This what I'm talking about:

yes this worked for me.
Thank you very much. Don't know why it was not working in the beginning.
But at least it's working now.

back to the image re-size part

second:

This is why a off-line upload tool would come in handy.
And i think you guys can even make this in Adobe air. But you are the flash experts so i'm not sure on that.
