Hi I am come onto this thread a bite late, sorry if I am covering stuff that has already been covered. I am a little trigger happy with my camera finger, new child/just married, so the camera comes out quiet often to catch silly things done by children and drunken friends ! My requirement for storeage was to be able to give access/show friends and family photos/albums and maybe limit access to certain photos/albums, I wanted an easy tool so i could add comments and do other sorts of things with my photo's to that end I am running gallery2 (php + Apache + postgres), I store my photo's on a file server and run these apps there and serve up the photo's via it. it allows for annonymous/guest access as well as userid (onyl bug bear is I haven't got it attached to my ldap db for aaa). I only created 1 album which every one uses (my wife and I are the only ones who put stuff there, currently at ~20K photo's - still have a lots of slides to scan in. I organise my albums into /Events/Year/YearMonth/YearMonthDay. I can add tags and comments to each folder/album/Picture, I can (and do) upload my movies from the video and the camera. You can search on date / tag / name / comment. I have also added gps (google maps) for each album/folder/photo/movie. You can assign acl's to each item as well. I love it, all the photo's and movies are presented as what ever thumbnail size i want currently set to 800x600 1024x768 1280x1024 and original size. So you can peruse the folder and look at the smaller size images and then click down to get the bigger images. it has a slide show feature, to look at all the images in the current and the child directories. The down side is you can't interact with the directory structure outside of gallery2, you need to upload and manipulate the files from the web interface (there is a webdav and upload applet and a remote tool for xp), for me its not a problem I make all the changes to the files in the beginning and then upload. I have my camera set to auto name my files, they are called img_xxxxxxxx.jpg. All other sources are tag for example from fred jim it would be jim_xxxxxxxx.jpg (xxxx = whatever his camera calls them). I have a preupload script that uses jhead to optimise, transform if necessary and sort the files into folders YYYYMMDD, these folders can them be uploaded to the web site. The project is active, there are deb packages in the repo. Alex > > -- > Bob Cox. Stoke Gifford, near Bristol, UK. > Please reply to the list only.
