Secure entry (login → dashboard): Login via loginimg.php, passwords verified with password_verify, then sessions protect all pages (no session = redirect).

Dashboard hub (dbimg.php): One workspace to see recent uploads, search fast, and jump to uploads, folders, and settings.

Project folders first: Create a folder, upload into it, and browse folders built from disk + database (clean, deduped list).

Upload flow (upload.php): Multi-file / drag & drop uploads saved to the selected folder, then indexed in the DB for instant display.

Fast image listing (list_images.php): Images load from structured JSON (id, folder, featured, timestamps) so the UI stays quick and easy to expand later.

Admin tools: Rename, delete (file + DB), set a featured cover image, and export ZIPs (full folder or selected files).

Settings & security: Preferences saved in settings via settings.php + save_settings.php (theme, layout, thumbnails, sorting, timezone/date), with CSRF protection.

Bilingual UI: English + Arabic support (e.g., dbimg-ar.php) for Saudi teams.
