Introduction
After writing a MT and WP plugin for Picasa, I realized that a lot of people don't use a CMS, so I wrote this Php script to simplify the task of putting a Photo Gallery online.Not only is the installation simple (you just upload a couple of files and create a gallery directory), but adding new Albums to the Gallery is done by simply uploading them to your gallery directory. Absolutely no updating or editing of config files needed! Everything is automatic.
This script automatically scans your gallery directory, and creates an index page for all your galleries. When clicking on a specific gallery, it will open a index page with all the thumbnails from that Album. Individual photos can then be viewed and there is easy navigation between photos, and back to the different index pages.
New Online Example:
I'm currently using this script for my main photo album, which you can find here: http://photos.leibold.cc/ - usually running the latest version of PicaViewer (you can verify by looking at version number when you view source on any page. I use this for testing before releasing a new version, so sometimes this might be slightly newer than what is available below)
Older Example:
View online example of script in action. This is just a basic example with 2 albums.
