Web Photo Gallery?

One thing that I’ve found is that with a new child, we now take TONS of pictures. On the desktop, I use the awesome Digital Image Library that’s part of the Digital Image Suite for organizing and keeping track of photos. However, the one thing that it’s lacking is the ability to publish ‘web galleries’, so I’ve been using Web Album Generator.


Generally, its ok I’ve been looking around for a better option. Any suggestions?

    Check out nGallery (http://www.ngallery.org/). It’s built with .Net, and it’s free. I used it with good success prior to .Text including a rudimentary gallery function integrated in with the blog software.

    I’ve started using gallery (http://gallery.menalto.com/) - PHP file based.

    One think I like about it is that you can set album and image permissions - users not logged in can only see a restricted set of image/albums. You can also control which logged in users can see what. And very easy to setup and use.

    Here is mine running on my home linux box (P133 64MB ram on broadband) http://photo.ajoliver.org/gallery/

    Do you have your own webserver? I’ve got a little ASPX/javascript app that I use for a slideshow of pics.

    iPhoto does this well… :)

    Breezebrowser (www.breezesys.com). I adore it. It is particularly great if you happen to use Canon RAW format - which for pictures of a child, is definitely worth the disk space. Totally customizable HTML templates.

    I have around 7000 photos right now and I use Electric Shoebox. Photos can be tagged with multiple categories, and the software has a built-in web server for publishing galleries (with password protection if desired).

    A few example galleries (on my home machine, on port 8080 since I run my blog on IIS):
