Being as I am, I had to have a gallery that'd work exactly how I wanted,
so I wrote my own ;)
The colours and themes (and to some extent, the layout) are configurable
with CSS, and the thumbnails are all generated automatically using the GD
PHP module. You can check it out on my blog:
http://blog.barrenfrozenwasteland.com/photos/gallery.php (primarily me
getting drunk I'm afriad. What can I say? I'm a student).
Unfortunately, I didn't plan for anyone other than me to use it, so
there's no install scripts etc at present. However, It's currently
undergoing a rewrite for various reasons, so I should be making it
available in the future.

Cheers,
Mark
