Thanks, Kent, for installing these.
I have about 30 Creative Commons photos from Flickr that are ready to go in as soon as we decide which gallery we want to use. I uploaded 3 test pictures to each gallery so that you guys can sort of see how the navigation will be for users.
Please check them out ASAP:
I have not explored them enough to know all about the differences between them, but at this point I MUCH prefer Gallery. I like the look of the interface better, I like that it automatically populates the photo metadata (such as shutterspeed, compression, etc.), and it is much, much easier to work with the formatting on photo descriptions. Thus far I can’t get the bbcode to work properly in Coppermine for photo descriptions; this is a major problem because we need to link back to the Flickr photo in order to give proper CC attribution.
However, if you all disagree with me, we can use Coppermine instead!
Please comment on this post as soon as you can and let me know which software you prefer. Once I have your input I will upload the rest of the photos to whichever gallery we select.

Nikki,
I agree that we should use Gallery and I added two of my own photos to the collection. I see that Sara already added it to the menu as Images and I know that she has mentioned that she likes gallery better too in our chats.
