Currently when you submit an image all that happens is it shows up on the mainpage as a thumbnail. Boring! We should be able to view those images on their own page.

If I upload the media entry of "A Walk in the Park" which has the ID of 4d8e5b0048b1520586000000, I should be able to view that at:

[http://mediagoblin.example.org/_{cwebber/m/d8e5b0048b1520586000000/](http://mediagoblin.example.org/}cwebber/m/d8e5b0048b1520586000000/)

(Eventually I'll also want to be able to view it by its prettier slugified URL:

[http://mediagoblin.example.org/_{cwebber/m/a-walk-in-the-park/](http://mediagoblin.example.org/}cwebber/m/a-walk-in-the-park/)

... but that's waiting on http://bugs.foocorp.net/issues/306 )

This URL should have the following things:

• The image, fully sized (we don't have scaled down versions implemented yet besides the thumbnail, so that's fine)
• The author's name
• When it was uploaded
• The title
• The description

Don't worry about the comments for now though.

In addition, the thumbs currently on the main page should link to this URL.

In the verification email we would output the URL using HTML encoded text, so that e.g. & -> &. We don't want that and we know the URL won't contain user contributed content, so it is safe to turn off HTML encoding here.

Patch to fix this: https://gitorious.org/mediagoblin/mediagoblin/merge_requests/3

We should somehow warn users that they need to verify their email before they can do anything.

We could do one of a few things:

• When we redirect to login on pages that require an active user, include a GET parameter on the redirect to /auth/login/ like /auth/login/?needs_verify_email=true and display a warning that the reason that the user wasn't able to do something was because they need to verify their email
• Put some text like "not verified" after the user's login name on each page?

In addition we should provide a means to resend the verification email if it borked the first time, and maybe link to that.
