Well, since somebody mentioned dot-net, I think I'm entitled to say that Apple's iWeb does the above ;-) Personally, though, I use gallery2 for most purposes. It has a Java app that you can use to upload hundreds of images at once. Well, as "at once" as your upload bandwidth allows. The setup is really simple. A lot of open-source apps nowadays come with "installers" that ask you about the database etc. Gallery2 does that, too. I don't see why anybody on this mailing-list should be incapable of mastering this task. You just upload the unpacked gallery2 directory to your webspace, create a db and a corresponding user with phpmyadmin and enter those details into gallery2's installer. Rainer
