People have been talking about "Gallery":http://gallery.sf.net/ v2 for what seems like decades. Today I found myself in a position to actually give it a test drive.
*UGH!*
It's got ugly urls, an ugly cluttered interface, it doesn't seem to do anything more than Gallery v1 did, *and* it's in PHP.
I'm looking for a combination of "Flickr":http://flickr.com/ and "SmugMug":http://smugmug.com/ that runs on my own server and is customizable. Technically speaking, SmugMug would work pretty well for Event Photography and to allow subjects to purchase portraits of themselves. But, SmugMug wouldn't work too well to handle sales of my Art Photography to the rest of the world since they collect a large profit, require you to use their lab, and ship straight to the customer so you have no opportunity to frame, matte, or sign the prints.
I'm open to suggestions. What do you use?
