about
-
Photolib is a web-based photo gallery program, but unlike all other galleries, this one is aimed to be a library rather than a standalone program. This way, users can take the Photolib library and easily plug a photo gallery into their own Perl-based site. They are also free to easily create their own look and feel to the gallery through regular Perl and HTML, rather than some complicated theme generator.
The sole programmer in this project is Ken Robertson (email,website). Any kudos or bitching for this project goes to him/me.
