Does anyone know of something REALLY simple? As in, using nothing but a directory hierarchy, CSS, and possibly some Javascript?
Vi and some manual coding? ;-)
Yeah, if I had time ...
Seriously, if you just want to have them available, just drop the files in a folder and allow directory listing on that folder.
That's *almost* what I want, except I want the directory listing to show the actual images instead of just links to the images.

Are you familiar with Joomla? It has some easy web gallery plugins. Also tools like aperature and lightroom will generate a web gallery for you from a set of images.
Hope this is helpful...

Thanks for the suggestion, but ... to be more explicit, the situation for which I'm (not very hopefully) seeking a solution is one in which the web host is both dumb and restrictive. They are not running Apache, they don't supply PHP or a CMS or a database, and they don't allow user-uploaded CGIs of any sort to be executed. The full extent of server-side customization possible is to drop a file called "index.htm" in the directory which will then be served up instead of a dumb listing. Everything else has to happen in the browser.
The Text-to-Image firefox plugin ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/618 ) combined with a plain directory listing like the earlier example Sorin posted ( http://home-skynet.servehttp.com/images/privata_bilder/VFR-Forum/Muffler ) produces almost exactly the display I care about, but obviously requires firefox plus a plugin, whereas I'd like something that loads into any browser when you visit the site. Also that plugin is reportedly no longer maintained and has some bugs that affect other pages.
I should probably be looking for something written in flash, I suppose. In any case this is off-topic for CentOS so I'll drop it here.

oh.
check into JAlbum, which builds albums -ahead- of time, and uploads them as static HTML + thumbnails + 'slides' + optional originals... it has 100s of templates for different visual themes, many of which are fairly interactive (usuing browser-side javascript)
By doing all the resizing and stuff in advance, you greatly alleviate the workload on the server.

Like thumbnails then. Isn't there some addon to Apache that might do that?
