Web Gallery software that lets me...

[Dweller]

I am trying to generate multiple gallerys in one webspace. Right now I am using JAlbum which is free and creates some very nice gallerys but I am looking for some features that I may need to branch out for.

I would like to create multiple gallerys under one main index page (jalbum may be able to do this)

I would like to be able to have users leave comments about the photos they like (doesnt seem to be able to do this)

I would like to have a couple of private areas that require some kind of basic login (assuming this is outside the scope of a gallery generator)

I have 3GB of space, CGI, PHP, MySQL

Any suggestions?

Yeah, look for a thing called Coppermine...its used by everyone because its so versatile and usefull! its worth a try and itll do all that you want it to!

It does however require a few things to be on your server, but if they arent there (which they probs will be) you may be able to ask your server to install them

Wow! Thanks for the tip I am still installing and configuring... not as easy as jalbum by any means but if your not intimidated by things like chmod then this is a great piece of software! I have only begun to see what its fully capable of. I will be having fun with this.

Speaking of web gallery software. What do you recommend for a "slideshow" type format that you can edit the width and parameters to fit in a small cell?

Yet again I think coppermine...it is the best thing to use...and it has a slide show function...if thats not right lemme know and ill see what I can dig up

Do you know of any web sites which uses coppermine? I would like to see it in action.

Well I have a version on my website...but my server needs to get a few things for it to work...
I believe there is a demo...ill go see if I can google it for yah

There yah go...yeh I know she aint great lookin....and my only complaint is that I havent really found many new themes for it :S

The nice thing about that demo site is it gives you teh option of trying all the themes.

I chose "eyeball" as the first one to try and have stuck with it ever since.
