What's a good photo gallery PHP script for my server?

Hakon · 05 Mar 2010

I'm building up a wallpaper collection on my server, already contains over 2500 of them.
Now i need a good PHP script that can display them (preferably) by categories and make thumbnails for the website.
I have found a bunch of them out there but none of the ones i checked out can show(or make) thumbnails, and the ones that could do so required a SQL database and some more complicated stuff to set up. As i'm still learning how to do this i would prefer something that dosent need a database of some sort (atleast nothing complicated).

Thanks in advance

[edit:] running Cent OS 5.4

You are going to struggle finding one that doesn't use an SQL database.

These are the two that I use, but both do require SQL.
Coppermine Photo Gallery

Iff you want to have a play about on your own PC, then I'm sure MS's webplatform installer has a few gallery scripts in it - Download the Microsoft Web Platform

Thanks for answering a question I hadn't asked, but now someone else has!

I searched for a photo display programs a year or so ago. I want to share photos with friends on my server space. When I looked I didn't find Coppermine, and it looks perfect for me. In fact, the people I want to share photos with also share information with a forum I administer, and it is PHPBB, so with integration for user info, this is even better than I dreamed possible.
