Gallery: A Great Open Source Project

by Raj on November 26, 2005

I’ve been a long-time and heavy user of Gallery, the open source photo management software. I take around 3K photographs a year and needed an efficient way to manage large, high-quality images. Flickr is great, but I’m way too deep into using something I love just to move off of it.

I spent the last couple of days off and on upgrading to G2. It has some very compelling features for people like me who need robust management and printing capabilities. That’s the thing that I’ve always hated about some of the other online offerings. They limit the resolution, size, etc. whereas I can store 10MB pictures and have Gallery render a smaller size image for users.

Anyway, hats off the community supporting Gallery with the 2.0 release. It’s one of the finest open-source products available.

Check out my gallery if you’d like.
