What would you need to build a database, or whatever you would call it, of pictures (not porn). Y'know, like Virutal Hideout. Where they had all those pictures of case mods. Would just some regular old HTML work? Any other scripting needed?

You could do it very easily with ASP. You could probably do it pretty easily with any scripting language that you were interested in. I'm willing to bet someobodies already written a script that you could use.

You could build one pretty easily if you know Access or any SQL server. You would have to have a directory with all the pics, name each pic, and then store that name in the database. Then it's simply using PHP or ASP to call up the specified pic based on the data requested.

If you are really interested in learning, I suggest PHP/MySQL vs. ASP/Access. I've tried both and prefer the PHP/MySQL method. For on thing, Linux supports PHP/MySQL easily enough. ;)
