[Submit your own testimonial]"I just recently re-discovered Korean pictures I took in 1952-53. They had been buried deep in storage and were never seen by my children and grandchildren. Showing them with a slide projector wouldn't have worked because of logistics and the need for commentary. My son recommended GALLERY. It turned out to be a perfect solution. I digitized the slides at One Hour Photo, scanned the B&W's myself and found a lot of collateral material on the internet. There are a total of 80 pictures at this time. " |
"Gallery is one of the most useful and well written (upgrades are a
breeze!) applications I've encountered in a long time. I can't thank you
enough for saving me the trouble of making it myself -- but I hope this
will help show a little bit of my gratitude. :) I also love the fact that
you have made it freeware, and support Open Source. You guys rock!" |
"Easy to setup, many many features, this is the best and the more
complete soft written in php to publish photos on the web ...
Non-commercial, authors and project deserve a donation :-)

"Here is my testimonial:
As a photographer, I had a large collection of images from Birmingham, UK, and decided to collate these in to a photo library. After struggling to get Extensis Portfolio and Portweb implemented (the cheapest version was using a consultant at between £1500-£2000 - which was way out of my price range), I was recommended Gallery by my web hosting supplier.
I will be honest and say it took me a few hours to get it installed - although my web hosting supplier did have a help FAQ. To fine tune the installation I even used the 'paid for support'. This was well worth it and the site was completed within two days (including uploading over 1000 images and then captioning them).
Now it is extremely easy to update the library (with Portfolio and Portweb solution I was previously offered I would have had to upload the whole site each time - 50MB!). I can't thank you enough for this product and providing I make some sales from the library I will donate a portion of the profit to yourselves.
Thank you for an extremely well made and flexible product.

"A simple message for such a simple to use but feature rich application - outstanding and thank-you!" |
"gallery has changed my life forever. prior to installing it, my cat ran
away, the milk in my fridge spoiled, and my grandmother passed away; but,
thanks to the hard-working individuals who made this software possible, my
cat has returned, i was able to purchase new milk, and my grandmother . . .
well, even gallery has its limitations, although i am still retaining some
hope in the cadaver-reanimation capabilities of version 2.0. needless to
say, gallery has proven itself to be the best solution for fulfilling all
my website needs and the
needs of my life in
general. thank you gallery team, and may you each live to be a thousand
years old.

"Guys,
What a wonderful wonderful product! I'm just at a loss of words, really. There is just so much to say about this product. I guess the main thing is its ease of use. Once installed, I was able, and this is now joke, to upload over 1500 pictures to my server in just a few hours! The skins are great and I love the transition effects in slideshow mode!!!
This has saved me a lot of time in putting my pictures. Previously this year, I had taken a couple hundred pictures an painstakingly generated my own thumbnails, mouse overs and page layouts by hand. It took me months! Now when I have new pictures its only matter of minutes before they're published. And I love the flexibility to manipulate them before you upload them through gallery remote(rotate, etc.) or I can even do it after they're uploaded.
Everyone else, if you are looking for an easy and flexible solution on publishing you own pictures online, this is by far the best! Don't look any further!
I am really looking forward to 2.0! Keep up the good work!!!!

"Our child is now 2 weeks old. My wife and I already have over 400
pictures up in our Gallery installation! Thanks to this software, we
have been able to easily share our precious memories with family and
friends from Singapore to Japan, to Northern Ontario.
I do have one beef with Gallery though ... it has made taking photos
altogether too much fun and I fear that we will run short on disk space
very quickly!

"Thank you so much for gallery! I am a Mac consultant that deals with creative companies. My biggest client is a digital photo studio that does product photography. They wanted a web-based solution for allowing customers to review and download the photos taken for them, and I was trying to implement something for them using PortWeb. Needless to say, PortWeb turned out to be a disaster..... the amount of hand-coding needed to make the catalog searches and photo downloads work was ridiculous, and to make matters worse, Extensis has perpetually pushed their release of a Mac OS X native PortWeb to infinity. The Mac OS 9 version froze the entire web server on a regular basis, and moving to MS was out of the question. We were coming close to the start of the shooting schedule for a customer who wanted web access to their shots, and I was having visions of an unhappy customer, resulting in a very unhappy client. I scoured the web in search of something that would work in a similar way that would really WORK, and would work on OS X, and I found a link to Gallery at AFP548.com. The review sounded too good to be true, so I looked over your site, downloaded the package, and installed it on my own OS X Server to test it out. In less than two hours I had a fully functional gallery site with a set of sample photos posted, and everything worked almost flawlessly. I tweaked the html wrapper to stick the client's logo on the page and change it to their color scheme, and took it for an on-site demo. After a "bad news, good news" discussion about PortWeb, I pulled out my laptop and demonstrated Gallery. I demonstrated the search, downloading the images, using the Gallery Remote app to post new photos, and in ten minutes time, my client's face turned from panic (over PortWeb) to excitement (over Gallery). Long story short: Set up Gallery on clients web server. Client is happy, the principals of the company are excited, the customer is impressed, and my esteem with this client is secure once more. You're darn right this solution deserves a donation! As soon as I get paid for said project, you're getting a cut of the take! "Todd Johnson (11/13/2003) |
"I installed "Gallery" in just 30 minutes on my Wedding website. It gives me a very easy way to manage & post my engagement, wedding, & honeymoon pictures for both of our families to access." |
"Gallery manages to pull off what a lot of commercial software seems to struggle at... it's feature-rich but still simple to use.
You can tell that every feature has been put in because someone wanted to use it, not because the marketing department wanted to have some features to list in a brochure.
If you haven't downloaded Gallery already then stop reading this and go and do it! You'll wonder how you every managed without it.

"Gallery is so awesome thank you so much for creating it. It's simple,
clean, and very functional....Thanks again!

"Just wanted to say that Gallery is an excellent software package. My
website hosts pictures and brochures for Case Construction and Case IH. I
maintain 3,258 images, inside of 654 albums. The system has never
crashed or given me a problem otherwise. I used to have to hard code
all the html for all these images, but now it is only a few clicks away
from being viewable.

"I just installed Gallery two day's ago and so far I am truly impressed....There is a great support on this web site. Waiting for my password to get in to the forum
which I think is a great addition to the Gallery. Thank you for creating such a nice software for people to use." |
"After considering many options to share my photos and sketches from my
travels alexlam.ca, Gallery
was the hands up winner in the end. It's extremely easy to install, its
interface is very intuitive and it was also fairly easy to customize and
modify to fit my layout. It also helps that it has a great support base
in its discussion forums and the suggested hosts that support Gallery
sites. Thank you so much ! With kindest regards from Canada.

"GREAT JOB!
The installation was done in a couple of minutes.
Next day I applied the IPTC patch. Import from pictures containing IPTC information works fine. Then I integrated the gallery into a PHPNuke website. COOL! Then I added a PHPNuke module to show the last five albums.
Thanks a lot!

"I Could Kick Myself For Not Installing This A Long Time Ago!
As a freelance designer and serious amateur photographer I had hundreds
of images on my site.
I stopped updating my static galleries months and months ago because I
grew tied of manually creating html files for the images to be in popup
windows, and creating thumbnails and all.
This has been my first attempt at any server side language, and I can't
believe that I didn't pull my hair out!
Between Galie's tutorial at Eclectic Web Studios, searching the forums,
and asking a few questions on the forums I have been able to customize
my Gallery at http://www.sapphirestudios.net/gallery/introspective to my
liking.
I even found excellent hosting for this new domain of mine via your
Forums. The folks at OpenSourceHost are right on the ball with replies
to questions or issues.
I've learned to edit PHP files and CSS files because of the bounty of
information I have found from searching your site.
You have no idea how happy I am to know how easy it's going to be for me
to keep my Galleries updated!
