Gallery 2.x

Gallery project page on SourceForge

A slick, intuitive web based photo gallery with authenticated users and privileged albums. Easy to install, configure and use. Photo management includes automatic thumbnails, resizing, rotation, etc. User privileges make this great for communities.

In all honesty, while Gallery is perhaps the best open source photo album written in PHP out there, it does have many problems. Most of these problems are the Gallery authors themselves. Gallery 1.x had enough problems, but they seem to have mostly been taken care of over the course of time. Gallery 2.x is a complete rewrite with a completely different API and sets of goals. While G2 is much better at its current stage of development than G1 is as far as total functionality and appearance, it seems to suffer from a lot of little problems. Most people will not realize these problems exist, however, until someone takes advantage of the problems as most people just install it and go along their merry way.
