Looking for suggestions

[kuanyu]

Hello,
I am looking for web gallery software and would like a few suggestions. I need to run my web gallery on a windows sever (ASP or ASP.NET). I would like to have both 'public' and 'password protected' albums. I do not need the ability to sell photos, I want the site mainly to showcase my work. I used to be a software developer so 'open source' would be great. I would like to know if anyone has a suggestion to share.
Thank You

You can buy bluehost.com or hostgator.com ...and build your own gallery ,it's free by host provide through your cpanel (fantastico) ...select gallery ...take less than 30 second to do ..after that upgrade the software gallery ..take another 30 second .

Now you have your own gallery only 1 minute .....then use smart FTP or any FTP software ...upload your photo to your server ....create the album and then import those photo to the new album you just create .

This is my site : http://www.vietdetroit.com/gallery/main.php

I have just finished building a photo-heavy website using drupal. My experience was extremely positive. Drupal has both private and public file access. I used public, so I can't say how the private access works, but if all you want to do is password-protect certain areas, then that is possible without any special features in your web site code. I used a Linux server and Apache, which works well. Apache lets you password protect directories with options in the .htaccess files. I presume Windows must have some sort of options that let you do something similar.

With Drupal, we used a module that builds simple slide shows, and we made ordinary web pages with plain image tags as well. Drupal has a module called gallery for you-beaut posh stuff, but I tried it and found it was overkill for what I wanted to do. You can take a look at our site and see for yourself at http://wingedhearts.org (http://wingedhearts.org/) .

I use Photoshop CS3 for the gallery. I modified the template (white on black) and after I publish the website, I put a batch file in the album folder that changes all of the htm pages to asp. Once I do that, all of the asp code in the templates are able to execute.
