This is a photo gallery program for sharing pictures and video from a digital camera with family and friends. It is a single PHP file that is easy to install on your own web server. A major goal with this project is to have a simple and intuitive interface that is easy for your whole family to use. Design Assumptions: (if these seem reasonable to you, then this program may be what you want) 1. Your web server has unlimited disk space but limited bandwidth. Typically this means you have a web server at your home connected to the internet with a limited upload bandwidth (such as DSL or cable modems). 2. Picture descriptions should be stored embedded in the original Jpeg file. 3. All visitors will use a modern browser with Javascript 4. This program does not provide a way to upload your pictures. 5. Your photos are organized in folders like this: top level ---> year ---> yyyy-mm-dd_event_name |---> photo jpeg and movie avi files ---> sub-folders ---> photo jpeg and movie avi files This is how the files are organized for the demo: Features: * Full screen slideshow * You only need to provide the original pictures, a cache of thumbnail and screen images is automatically maintained * Automatic rotation of images based on EXIF orientation data * Videos are converted to the Flash .flv format for maximum browser compatibility and low bandwidth * Video thumbnails generated from first frame * Pictures are automatically scaled to fit on any screen with Javascript * Load balancing mirror feature can speed up image loading when bandwidth is limited. * RSS feeds for easily sharing your latest photos with iPhoto users * Save photo destriptions in the JPEG file comments of the original file (like writing on the back of a print) * Only "admin" users can modify comments or delete files * The original photos do not need to be available thru the web server or can be restricted with a .htaccess file * Visitors can buy photos using Digibug's service * Multiple pictures can be downloaded in a zip file from the shopping cart * Local configuration variables can be save in a separate file to make it easy to upgrade * Specific features can be disabled * Diagnostic feedback to help fix permission and dependency problems
