Which is the best Photo Gallery?
Hi Guys and Ladies,
I have built my first Gallery using a script running out of my DAM software (IMatch). You can see the result at weiersmuller.org.
However I want to create something better. I am today trying to import some pictures on Flicker. It looks nice and easy to use and has lot of traffic. But before that I need to rename properly my pics, export ITPC fields and then I will load these to Flicker, long day today!
Anyway I can see that I am not the only one to start Galleries. For instance Mark is going for Gallery2 see.
So, I am asking to the people who went through that process before, what would you recommend and why?
My main requirements would be:
- to share my pics with family and friends, online but also on CDs,
- later sale a few pics to pay for the hardware,
My secondary requirements would be:
- access control,
- integration to paypal,
- integration to online printers,
- integration to IMatch,
- cool presentation,
I see that there are quite a few vays to go about creating photo galleries:
- specific software like IMatch Photo Gallery,
- Online service like smugsmug and flicker,
- open source gallery like the php Gallery2,
- custom made ones (I am looking at Ruby on Rails for that)
What did you use? And most importantly why?
