I have just completed an initial draft of a PHP-based photo gallery system. Take a look. The readme is available separately here

The system is built on templates designed by Douglas Bowman

Download the slim version (just an msi package for the Picasa template) of my offering here, or the full version here and feel free to leave me feedback. I know there is still a lot to do, but I’d like to hear what others think before I fix / break things.
