I am looking for a free open source php image gallery script, hotscripts have hundreds and I would rather not try and test them all Anybody got any recommendations? Basically I need to allow people to upload images and then maybe vote or comment on the best. I would also like a moderator to check the image before it is posted on the site.
Gallery2 is one of the more andvaced ones...bulk zip uploads, voting comments...etc etc. You can also intergrate it into many different cms systems or just a simple php page
Use this one on my site, I've tested it out and its great and easy to use. http://www.webmastergalaxy.net/advphp/gallery/imagegallery.php
there is the one i use here HERE its free and SEF the link to it can be found on the footer of the page (Simple Gal)
Another vote for Gallery from me. I use 1.x for my personal gallery: http://www.digitalpoint.com/~shawn/gallery/
i use coppermine... pretty easy to install and configure... their theme system for skinning is pretty easy too...
Tried gallery today and found it very complicated to get the same design as my site and the functions I need. Now using the following. http://www.sitepoint.com/article/php-gallery-system-minutes Thanks for the pointers though - I reckon if you don't want to do much coding then Gallery is the best bet.
I have used "Enhanced Simple PHP Gallery ". It has a mod_rewrite option if that's important to you and it was pretty easy to integrate into my site.
Update: I have now got the script working from the Sitepoint article. It uses 3 very simple php pages and 2 small SQL tables. It took a couple of hours to do but most importantly it can be customised to be exactly what I need. Compare this to the gallery script which was difficult to customise, 22Mb of files to upload and used 50 SQL tables.
