photo gallery software

cornbread · Mar 1, 2006

Hey Guys,

I'm looking for a program that can make nice professional looking photo galleries. Something that can be implemented into a web site easily. I would like to find something free, but if there is a nice paid version that works well I will do that.

Coppermine Photo Gallery: http://coppermine-gallery.net/index.php

It's basically a really well made free web photo gallery solution that has different themes and many options. You'll need access to your web server of course and access to your mysql database to install it.

I know my web host has mysql installed, but I don't think it has php

. Plus I'm not familiar with either of them. But coppermine looks like I was wanting, something along those lines.

I have the economy plan from godaddy.

Either was I. I just followed the instructions and I was ok. Your host most likely has php installed. Pretty much all hosts have MySql and Php installed. They should probably also have cpanel installed where you can make the modifications or phpmyadmin.

Mysql/asp is what I have...bah, I know nothing about that, just basic html.

I just checked out G2, looks good also, BUT it requires php also.

Ok, I was able to switch from asp to php with godaddy, so hopefully I can get one of these up and running. Thanks guys for the info.

Yeah I did call them, but mine didn't have php, don't know why. I just check and they have it installed now, with a bunch of other things that come pre-installed, one of them being coppermine, haven't tried it yet.

I think the reason I didn't have php is because I was on a Windows server, now its on Linux.

Ok I ran coppermine, like I said it came with the switch to the Linux server, very nice software. I also just installed the Gallery software, so far I am liking that, still working on how to customize it, but seems very user friendly once you get it installed, I had errors when I installed it the first time

Hey, glad to hear you got it installed! Let me know if you need any help with it.
