There's a tag in the gallery that will let you manipulate images in a whole variety of ways, including making thumbnails and copying images to thumbnails folders. You could use that as the basis for your gallery app. But I've never managed to make it create good images. I don't know how other people have managed with it, but I think there's no substitute for the MkI eyeball in deciding if an image is crisp and clear and correctly cropped.
This was a big blow for me because I have several photo galleries I maintain for clients and for my own projects. It consumes far too much of my time, and as a result I keep procrastinating on them until I am forced to update them. Has anyone else used the custom tag for creating image thumbnails automatically?

Is there anything similar to the PHP open source project "Gallery" available for Cold Fusion? I've been playing with some php open source projects such as Post Nuke, phpBB2 and Gallery for the past week and they are some impressive pieces of work. The Gallery project on SourceForge can be found at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/gallery The application uses one of several open source image processing packages (I'm using ImageMagick) to do image manipulation like creating thumbnails, photo rotation, and autoresizing. I can just about muddle through php and can customize a few sundry features, but I'd love to find a CF version of Gallery that I could integrate into a couple of existing ColdFusion applications that I'm working on. BTW, wasn't there a CF Open Source mailing list at HOF at one time? I don't see any trace of it on the web site any more. Is there currently a good resource for CF open source projects?
