Can anyone help me start an image hosting website?

[idea]

I have tried 2 different php gallery scripts, one by celerondude (awesome skin but no search feature) and one by Coppermine (way too complicated, makes it look like a vbforum).

My requirements are:
Simple, clean, attractive interface
Searchable by keywords
Anyone can search (unregistered)
Registered users may upload images

Anyone know about this kind of stuff?

Write it yourself. Or just use flickr.

Gallery is pretty good. It has a user module so that they can register and automatically create and album. Lots of skins... but the skinning engine is something that still needs work.. but has improved. I'm using it on one of my sites with the PGTheme.

v---- Crazyfool makes a good point. Forget Gallery since I've had consistent problems with the database.

Coppermine is the only one I have been able to keep running without glitches for over a year. All the others had issues at one point or another.

I like rsgallery. It is just a component for joomla. it?s a very simple basic script.
