Can't seem to find such a software but would like to have website built for client that they can update on their own by uploading pictures and have them automatically post to website..!

Ex. could use WAM to single page for client to upload image or video that would appear on webpage designed to show the images????

Ex. what about setting up to allow them to email pic or video and use subject field for captions to uploads on website..?????

Ex. After upload make to where it can separate if picture or video and send to website.com/pictures.html or website.com/videos...?????

Well possibilities are endless but you get the picture as to want I'm looking for..!!!!!!

I would take a look at S-Drive Streams as that has some of what your looking for. Otherwise some heavy php mysql scripting tied into the form builder would work.:)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.

CoffeeCup also has their Power Post software that is specifically created for their S-Drive Streams so your clients could update their streams very easily with that program. They can also update it via email too, but the program gives a lot more versatility for the content setups :)

Problem is they don't want to buy ur S drive service when they already have there own hosting account! This is why little by little seems that All CC software is turning to ur SDrive system to work so starting to look else where for independent run software programs like ur original software years back!!!!

Don't get me wrong I use a lot of your software as long as I can export them to run on our hosting server but soon as it becomes S-Drive required I'm gonna have to say bye to CC! I believe I'm not the only one that thinks this way!

S-Drive should be a option on your software not a requirement for extra features! Before was friendly customer #1 service now it's how we make more $$$$ of our programs corpreate type business!!!!!

Sdrive account free with copy of VSD

Stream FREE with Free Sdrive account

Stream can be added to your other pages hosted on your own server in an iframe

Stream can be updated from mobile phone with email ability, or pc

Copy of VSD costs very little with free hosting for life , and watch out for CC mad friday, it will be even cheaper.

Or use cloud hosting and develop your own version of stream which a techy friend of mine did as he didn't want a CC account, OOOP's then he usd my Sdrive because it saved him hours of work so ended up cheaper
Started using CC VSD in January 2009, I don't do HTML code, Sales from CC site exceeding expectations taken me out of semi-retirement
Hosted FREE on CC S DRIVE www.chauffeurdrivenluxurycars.co.uk
My new VSD & SCCP site Oct 2011 www.deloreanjewellery.co.uk

Well see how cheap those hours of scripting are.;)

There isn't a single piece of software other than Power Post that "requires" S-Drive that CoffeeCup sells. There are some features offered with some of their software when you do use S-Drive, but all of their software is able to be used on outside servers also other than Power Post. The reason Power Post isn't is because it was explicitly created to make updating Streams in S-Drive easier and more powerful. Nothing strange there, just something to help those that do use their Stream. Other than that, you can export to your hearts content with everything else.

As for S-Drive, it's not just a free account when you buy software, it's free for certain uses to the public. You don't have to own a single piece of their software to use it, but it's nice if you do! There's no extra payment that you need to pay for it, and you can host a stream and iframe it into your own hosted website very easily as well. Just need to think outside the box a little bit is all :)
