Photo Server Software?

[jay-R5TnC2l8y5lBDgjK7y7TUQ at public.gmane.org]

I've worked with gallery on a project for the Umass boston bio dept. Its a powerful cms with a lot of great media features. The only drawback is its use of folders for organization. Works great for a small to moderate sized sites but it starts to choke when you get into multiple thousands of albums/folders because of its relyance on folder structure rather than the db for organization.  

Just a heads up and not much to worry about for most sites,because it is a great cms for photo sharing and management just not on a large scale.

Hmm!  Gallery2 certainly looks like an interesting app.  It has
a bunch of the features I'm looking for like intermediate image
sizes, auto-rotation based on EXIF headers, etc.  How well does
it work with albums with 100s of pics?  For example I just downloaded
650 pics from my camera from a 5-week trip.  I broke them down manually
into about a dozen categories (based on time frames and locations).
I probably have a few thousand photos up already that I'd want to
transfer over eventually.
