Hi,
Ive spent a bit of time looking for a gallery where my users can upload their pictures to one common gallery (possibly with subcatagories).
I have read some of the documentation on Gallery and it looks like it could work for me but I would like to ask a quick couple of questions before testing.
1. Can I let anybody sign in and post their photos to one gallery, signing up using their own email and password, and if so is there any restrition on the amount of users?
2. Can anybody comment on somebody elses picture.
3. Can one or more admins check the contents of the pics and/or comment uploaded before being published to the gallery.

Appriciate the help .
Rob

Gallery 2 is capable of doing all of this, although not everything is set up like this out of the box.

You'd need to install\configure the following modules:

Album per registered user:
http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery2:Modules:useralbum

For 'moderating' uploaded images:
http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery2:Modules:moderate

Moderating comments is built into G2.3

if it is just one album then you don't need the 'user albums' module, but you do need to grant the '[core] Add Sub Items' permission to the users\groups you want to be able to upload items to.
