Recommendation for PHP or Python web2 image gallery

Nick_C · 01-25-2015, 03:13 PM

Any suggestions, is there anything which looks professional and stands out from the rest?

Would be good to find something with a web 2.0 type foreground window as many of the mainstream hosted image galleries do now.

Quantity of pictures is not going to be too much, and I will be the only person uploading pictures to it.

Just a few links from the first page of searching.

Thanks for the suggestions maples but despite much searching I haven't yet found quite what I am looking for.

Many of the Lightbox based ones seem to do only one single collection of pictures rather than allowing an index of many picture libraries.

Well I am still having difficulty finding exactly what I am looking for.

Perhaps I can explain further my vision of what I am looking for:
Front page say thirty or so Collections.
When one collecting is selected, bring up an overlay in a lightbox of the first picture in that collection.
At the same time have a horizontal slider of all other images in that collection.
Leaving the background page of all the other collections greyed out but ready to go when the currently viewed collection is closed.

Does that make sense or am I looking for something impossible?

I think the problem is I am searching for the wrong thing. It seems I should be looking for a light CMS with Gallery addon. So to that end can anyone suggest a suitable CMS & Gallery combination.
