I will soon be looking to upload a lot of images to my webspace. I was wondering if anyone knew of any decent photo viewing software that will make it easy for me to view the images once i have uploaded them? Basically something that you can add categories to, view photos in thumbnails, click to see full size, see dates, add commments etc etc...

Any help is, as ever always appreciated

Either

Coppermine Photo Gallery

or

Gallery | Your photos on your website

BOth require webspace with php and mysql access, once installed and configured very simple to use.

BTW I have web space with mysql and php.

Gallery 1.5 is a terrific product, I've had about 8 websites use it, currently have 3.
V2 is bit bloaty and more like a CMS, 1.5 will do everything you want. (and doesn't need mySQL)

i've used gallery, both 1.5 and v2 and found them great. Tried Coppermine once but went back to gallery as I was used to how it did things. For a beginner to both, try both - they're free

I currently have them both installed and i think i am going to remove Coppermine, gallery 1.5 seems smaller, simpler and a little more streamlined.

Now i just need to play with it and make it look a bit prettier

I use this:
Web Gallery Wizard™: Create an HTML gallery with this photo website software.

Very easy to use/setup and does everything you want.

I've used this recently also:

JAlbum - free web photo album software and photo gallery software

Free program, easy to use with loads of config options.
