How do I set up a dynamic photo gallery?

[BitTwiddler]

How do I set up a dynamic photo gallery which would pull the photos from a
database? Also, can thumbnails be created dynamically or would the database
need to have the thumbnail for each photo?

Don't put the image in your DB
- put links to them in your DB (w/ the files in your site)
As for resizing, depends on your host and if the support server side tools like ASPjpeg

I have photo website and overtime have found some PHP scripts some of them
are very basic and some will use a database. Below are some links to my
images and then a link to the PHP gallery information.

Installing some are easy as copying 1 or 2 files to your server and adding
images to the folder.

The one you may like is FHImage. I have a post in their forum to block the
Frontpage _vti folder from showing. You will need to add a simple line to
that PHP script. Also Gallery2 is very powerful and uses a database and will
create thumbnails for you. This is the most advanced script I have found.

Please note some of the above are free but they do accept donations if you
use the script. Please donate to developer if you use and like any of the
above scripts.

This is a wonderful resource. Can you put all this on one of your site's
pages so I can link to it from these pages:
http://www.eleanorstravels.com/PhotoGalleryPrograms/index.htm And this one:
http://www.eleanorstravels.com/photogallerysuggestions.htm
............ Or shall I just take this info and add it to the bottom of my
pages. I prefer the first way!

P.S. Here are my Goblins from late September:
