The ASP Photo Gallery is a free tool to create web galleries within 5 minutes.
How it works
The ASP Pics Gallery works by simply using a database and a folder with writing permissions. Inside the database all the informations about your pictures such as the path of the file, the description and the category will be stocked, so it is very easy then for the script to create the thumbnails using an ASP.net application to make the miniatures.
A control panel will allow you to set up the output and the colors of the layout.
What you need
To run this tool you need a website with a database folder, ASP and ASP.net supports and a folder with writing permissions.
How to install
Download the zip file here and unzip it on your computer.
In the /admin/ folder open the file inc_path.asp and write the correct path where you want to upload the pics (the writing permissions folder).
Open the files inc_db_aut.asp and inc_db_ins.asp from the same folder and write the correct path of the database fotodata.mdb
Upload the database fotodata.mdb in the database folder, the resize.aspx file into the writing permissions folder and the rest of the files and the complete admin folder where you prefer. Be carefull to keep the right paths.
Open the control panel: http://www.yoursite.com/admin/admin.asp and enter the password admin. Once you are inside you can change the password first (recommended!) and then you can set up the layout of the gallery by choosing the number of pics per page, and the different colors.
Now you are ready to upload your pictures using the upload form in the control panel. My advice is to upload only pictures of the same size, if the thumbs are too big or small you can change the size by editing the resize.aspx file lines 7, 8 and 9.
The tool is free, you can make any change and adapt it to your web site, but I just ask you to keep the links on my website.
