Is there any picture album software for personal websites?

Hi all.

I just got back from California and I took around 1400 photos. Fortunately for me, a good potion of these photos are of high enough quality to share. Unfortunately for me, that means that they are a bear to manage.

I set up Photoshop 7 (I know, I know, but I'm too cheap to upgrade) to batch resize them and to create thumbnails. Then I used QBasic to auto-generate HTML files. The result is this:

Joshua Tree National Park

My question is, does an application exist that can replicate most or all of the above process automatically? If not, I'm going to write one in VB, but I thought that I'd check first. I can't imagine that all of you super-photographers go through these steps regularly. Once a year is too much for me!

well actually the coppermine photo gallery removes the need to do this all you have to do is upload your full size images this will automatically do the rest... Hope i answered your question

If you don't need your viewers to download the originals, there's always picasaweb, or jalbum for your own site. if you want that original, either coppermine or gallery2. I prefer gallery2 myself if you were going to want the full sized images.

tried both coppermine and gallery2. prefer g2. much more customizable than coppermine

I love gallery 2.

Or you could sign up for a free flickr account.
