I have been keeping an eye out for upload controls for possible use with Simple Gallery. Ideally, what I am looking for is:-
- A distributable license so that users can at least recompile the solution (if need be)
- A progress bar to handle mass file uploads
- A module that is easy to integrate, I understand that it may require some changes to the web.config to be enabled (httpModule).
This one from Telerik looks ok, has anyone had any experiece with it? There demo's don't render that great in my version of IE.

We use File Manger Pro and the one it has works great with very large files. Maybe they can tell you which one they use. It is here http://www.speerio.net/default.aspx?tabid=670

The Telerik one looks good, you can always change the style, however, I've had licensing issues with them and DNN modules before so be sure you clear up any issues there before you part with any cash.

Hey smcculloch, BTW do you know some progress bar control that I can use in modules that preforms very slow tasks? thanks in advance

The telerik one is very good. I have used it for several projects already. However, it is an HTTP Module, so be aware that it requires a change to web.config and can't just be installed via the DNN PA uploader. Also, the licensing could be an issue, but you may be able to work out a deal with them.

As a follow up, it would nice if DNN adopted or developed a similar HTTP module for all uploads. Perhaps someone on the core team (hint hint) could build one and get it worked into the core.

I spent some time yesterday looking at different upload controls and didn't see any that fit my needs. However, I wasn't willing to pay the $500-800 redistributable fee. If you think you would be, then send me a PM and I'll go back and look up the two that I thought deserved further review. (sherritp)

I have been to a number of Microsoft events recently and there is quite a bit of buzz around smart clients. The reason's are obvious. Power, Flexibility etc. I believe FotoVision is a nice example of this. I would be ecstatic if you enabled this to support your gallery module. I actually think it could be expanded to Support DNN in general. This would give administrators a great boost in performance. Anyway, my two cents. Re-Work FotoVision to support your modules.

Have you decided on an upload component yet? My company (Krystalware) has a very extensible component called SlickUpload that sounds like it could fit your needs. Shoot me an email if you'd like to talk about it.
