IDS is a CGI written in Perl that generates a photo album website on the fly. All you need to provide are the images and (optionally) text descriptions. As you add new pictures, they will appear automatically. Each image will be displayed with information such as image type, file size, image size, and date uploaded. If EXIF information is embedded in the image (shutter speed, aperature, focal length, etc.), it will be displayed. It will create thumbnail preview images for JPEG, PNG, and GIF images. It will also recognize and display QuickTime movies, MPEG movies, and MP3 files. IDS uses HTML templates, so you can easily customize the look of your site.

SWIGS is a system for creating hierarchically organized sets of thumbnail galleries. Multiple sizes for each image are produced automatically, and each image can be annotated with a relevant description, date, photo credit, etc. The image galleries (albums) have a tree structure, each album possibly containing pictures and/or additional albums. The album is made up of a set of webpages: a set of thumbnail pages for the images in the gallery, a text-only list of all the images in the album (with description if available), and a page listing all the sub-albums of the current album, with a description and sample image for each.

WebMagick makes image collections available on the Web. It recurses through directory trees, building HTML pages, imagemap files, and client-side/server-side maps or HTML tables to allow the user to navigate through collections of thumbnail galleries. Using JavaScript, HTML tables and cookies, WebMagick can also allow the viewer to configure how they view the gallery. The primary focus of WebMagick is performance. Image thumbnails are reduced and composed into a single image to reduce client accesses, reducing server load and improving client performance. Everything is pre-computed. During operation WebMagick employs innovative caching and work-avoidance techniques to make successive executions much faster. WebMagick has been successfully executed on directory trees containing many hundreds of directories and hundreds of thousands of images ranging from tiny icons to large JPEGs and PDF files.

SLIKPIKS is a set of Perl scripts wrapped in a Perl CGI to help with the automation of creating html photobooks for a set of JPEGs. It resizes images for thumbnails and web-sized images, adds captions, and auto-creates html. It is unique in that it allows you to add optional captions to your photos.

photoaddict is a perl script to give a nice frontend to displaying images -- especially those from a digital camera. photoaddict requires ImageMagick, Image::Size module.

Webgallery is a Perl script that lets you create a webpage showing off a gallery of your images. The current version of Webgallery requires the URI::URL module, as well as PerlMagick. It outputs JPEG formatted thumbnail images in an XHTML 1.0 index page.

CommunityAlbums allows your members to create their own photo albums. Users upload photos to your site (limits set by you) and the images are automatically converted to thumbnails. Once albums are created, they can be shared with others through listings in a directory, or they can remain private.

Auto-Gallery automates the maintenance of large picture archives. You can add new pictures by simply uploading them. All you need to do is put pictures on your server and the program does the rest. It even determines the height and width of the pictures for you to make your pages look more professional and load faster. You control every aspect of the presentation, including style, colors, and even the order of the pictures. It also prevents others from loading the pictures off your server and using your bandwidth.
