Loove

My own online photo gallery system.  Built in PHP with a MySql back end, it's all about speed and versatility.  You can have multiple galleries (groupings of photos) which themselves can be grouped together under albums.  It has a commenting system, templates, and the tools to administer it all.  But best of all, getting images into galleries is a piece of cake.  All you have to do is use an ftp program (smartftp for windows is awesome and free) to drag and drop your images into the appropriate folder.  Thumbs are generated automatically, and the newly updated photo shows up right where it should.  You can download it if you're interested in trying it out.  Requires PHP 4.3.8 or greater and MySql 4.0.20 or greater.



Updates

12.14.05:   I made significant changes to the backend many moons ago.  It now supports browser based uploads and tags, among other things.  The front end interface, however, reflects none of this.  I expect to update it at some point, I just don't know when.  Probably before my next big trip.

I removed the download, because I don't feel that it's worthy of repackaging at the moment.  Everyone loves Flickr anyway.
