[TriLUG] Digital Photos, Thumbnails, and Web Pages

[David McDowell]

Gallery2 is great for me.
http://gallery.menalto.com/

my gallery is at http://www.turnpike420.net/gallery2/gallery2embedded.php

I only have 2 vacation albums uploaded currently, but it's enough to
give you an idea what it can look like.  Of course, the gallery site
has lots of examples of its own.
