Re: Photo Album
I second the gallery nomination, I've been playing with gallery on my personal site: http://www.karas.net/gallery Has a lot of cool features (print an image from ifoto.com or similar services), java-based management clients for PC's, etc...

Anybody have feedback or suggestions? I've been using 'zoph' for a few weeks and am pretty happy with it. That said, it is not accessible to anyone but me, but could be. Things I like about it: * web-based *and* command line interface * stores lots of meta data in MySQL -- photographer, people in the picture, location, date, all the exif stuff, mulitple user-defined categories, mulitple, user-defined albums... * different way to look at photos -- pictures of Spencer taken by Marc and date after 11-March-1999 and category is 'Destination Imagination' * Export to static photo albums - 'bins', 'albums' and zoph formatted HTML. Handy to burn for CD archives or give to non-internet relatives. * Light boxes, multiple users with difference privileges, user ratings of photos, etc... The project hasn't had a release in a while, but the developer is still around. I started with the version in debian/testing (apt-get install zoph), but have since pulled the latest files from their CVS tree. -marc -- Marc Nozell [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.nozell.com/blog ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss

I've been using it at home since version 1x and it's now located at http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpix2/ Very easy to customize too... I added in a few lines that would include a notes file located in each album directory to describe the pictures in that group.

Anybody have suggestions for or against any particular software? You never actually specify what software you're trying to move away from. That might be relevant for anyone trying to make suggestions :) My feature requirements are that it be able to handle multiple albums, have sub albums/folders, and most importantly, needs to allow the viewer to choose the resolution they wish to view at. It would be nice if it also supported me being able to add comments to the pictures as well. aol / I've also been looking for something like this. The most popular application for this kind of thing seems to be PHP Gallery http://gallery.menalto.com/, but I wasn't very impressed with what I've seen of it. (Why do PHP engines always look so... amateur? Or something, I can't put my finger on it, but the tiny sans-serif fonts and the near-ubiquitous smiley icons really grate on me for some reason...) SpiderEyeBalls http://www.spidereyeballs.com/ is IMO much slicker than Gallery, but it may not be quite as flexible. (Then again, I may just be confusing the design of the SEB pages with the interesting photography of the guy who writes the software -- that is, his photos are interesting, so the site its software picks up some of that shine.) I really like http://husk.org/pics/, which is run by a homemade photo gallery application called Stem. The pages all look nice, but I particularly like the touch of using CSS to superimpose captions directly over the images. Also, and this one is a big deal for me, site visitors seem to be able to add comments -- I really want a photo site engine that has this capability, and Stem is the only one I'm aware of -- aside from some MovableType blog hacks -- that provides this capability. The other feature I'd like in a photo site engine would be an architecture that is friendly to people who can scp/rsync over new photo directories. That way, I could just copy over a fresh batch of photos to my web server, and the photo engine would -- maybe as a cron job -- find the new content and do various forms of auto-magic (make thumbnails, build cache pages, etc). I don't want to have to upload everything through a web form if I can just as easily copy the files over and tell the server where to look for new content (or better still, let it be auto-discovered). Most photo site software I'm aware of doesn't really work that way. I'm also interested in suggestions. -- Chris Devers ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
