Raph Photo Gallery is a web-based photo album manager.

It allows to easily and automatically display photo albums.

The gallery can be public or private (protected by access codes).

Visitors can add comments to the photos.

The whole configuration is done through a user-friendly web interface.

Raph Photo Gallery is mainly written in PHP and doesn't need a database server. It's free, freely modifiable and redistributable under the GNU GPL license.
