Hi there,

I'm interested in using some photo gallery software on my website rather than just doing hyperlinking myself. I found this site

http://coppermine-gallery.net/index.php

which has basically what I'm looking for but the execution of it seems a bit complicated. Anyone had any experience with these sort of programs, or maybe can recommend a good one?

I'm just wondering if it's too much of a trouble, because if it isn't it looks ideal.

I've used Gallery 1 and Gallery 2 (http://gallery.menalto.com/) on several sites (http://www.tandswebdesign.com/portfolio/advancedresults.php?service=gallery) and have found it to be a good tool if my client wants to upload pictures themselves, if they need to be able to search the gallery, or if it's just going to be updated frequently.

But for some sites, like this artist's site and this non-profit site, I found it easier to implement other options.
