Hey folks! A friend of mine introduced me to some pretty amazing web software called 'Gallery'. It's a full-featured, *free* photo gallery package that you can administer from a browser, has accurate hit counting, allows comments, nested albums, photo printing, automatic thumbnails, and previews... the list just goes on and on. As long as you're comfortable setting up a web server with PHP and various other utilities, it's a breeze to install. Check it out! "//www.menalto.com/projects/gallery"
If you'd like to see it in action (shameless plug) you can look at mine at "//www.pft.com/~mousie/gallery/". I've hacked at the code a little to change the layout, but you can get a pretty good idea of how it works.
I hope to see other peoples' galleries up soon!

| Hi, I found the Gallery to be a bit heavy on code and the template system a bit cumbersome to modify. I use coppermine //www.chezgreg.net/coppermine/ |

If you are willing to spend some money ($80, I believe), Photo Post is an excellent option. A somewhat modified version of this is what what runs the Photocritic galleries, and I am very happy with it.
Photo post features Bulk uploads, commentary, ratings (although I don't use the two latter), and seemingly very very fast.

Not sure if anyone's interested, but I wrote a perl script to show a web gallery from directories on my web server. You can see an example here:
//www.calcaria.net/wa
It's not very sophisticated, but being able to just upload files into directories to publish them is very convenient, I find.
If anyone wants the source, let me know. |

| Pekka Saarinen has written some nice software, The Exhibit Engine, which is suitable for small (to medium) sets of images. Without any actual experience with it, I can only assume that it provides only a single layer of access to groups of photos (exhibits). |

Interestingly enough, I made one of those in PHP.
Found a pretty bad security problem with yours, though.. I'll email you.

I use both coppermine and gallery.
I like coppermine the best, it was quite easy to inegrate it with an phpBB2 forum. And it is easy to make your own styles.
