I'm changing gallery software in the next couple of days. So many open source choices out there... it's hard to choose. In addition to which there are flickr and the like. Do I want to post everything on flickr? I don't know. I think the dream - for all amateur photographers - is to have the hobby pay for itself. Shutterfly has some pro galleries and there must be 10 more good choices out there for hosted gallery services (and dozens more bad choices). But, I am a dinosaur of the pre .net age. I like the idea of the self contained server platform. Thus I think I will be using gallery 2.

It is probably worth noting that on this, my homepage, I am going for canned solutions. I like experimenting with open-source software and seeing what it can do. So, this site besides being my gallery, will be a carefully integrated open-source powered site - a gallery of the hard work of others.

* I have added an image area on the right sidebar that will randomly pull an image from the gallery. If you click on it it will take you to the gallery.
