JAlbum
http://jalbum.net/
This gallery software makes web albums of your digital images.
JAlbum aims to be the easiest to use and most powerful tool in
this category - and free!
With JAlbum, no extra software is needed to view the albums,
-just your web browser. Unlike "server side" album scripts,
JAlbum albums can be served from a plain web server without
scripting support. You can also share your albums on CD-ROM.
JAlbum runs on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and others and
speaks 26 languages. Today JAlbum is mentioned over 3.000.000
times on the Internet (Google/Altavista) and this site has over 7000
visitors per day and a live community. I hope you find it your tool of
choice for sharing images.

ver 6.0
Changes:
A brand new image management section with a visual Explorer-like user
interface. Stuff you can do now include:
Use drag and drop to visually arrange images
Arrange images in predefined ways per folder (camera date, file date, file
name)
Use rubberband selection and keyboard selection (control/shift) to select
multiple images.
Exclude images you don't want included in an album without deleting them
from disk
Permanently delete images
Edit properties on images and folders
Rename images and folders
Run slide shows
Set images to indicate album folders instead of using folder icons
Rotate images safely and losslessly (only adjusts an image orientation
flag)
New stylish icons and appearance thanks to the Alloy look and feel from
Incors!
Supports several new file formats like TIFF, BMP and JPEG 2000 through the
Java Advanced Imaging Image I/O Tools plugin from Sun
Album folders can now be represented by a thumbnail image instead of the
folder icon. Previously this was a feature of some skins, now this
functionality is added to JAlbum itself
Custom album titles and descriptions can now be set per album folder from
the user interface
Reads and writes progressive JPEG images
JAlbum now auto senses the EXIF/TIFF image orientation info stored by
cameras in JPEG images and rotates images accordingly. Note, only generated
images are rotated, your originals are kept untouched. JAlbum is also smart
enough to not further rotate already rotated images with incorrect image
orientation info.
The EXIF extraction library has been updated to v2.3, meaning a lot of
fixes for common problems and support for more camera models. Thank you
Drew! One notable improvement is support for reading Windows File
Properties (title, subject, author, keywords and comment)
sftp added. Thank you Joost den Boer for this integration
JAlbum now recovers from errors caused by images that have corrupt EXIF
structures (corrupt images may be ignored though)
The user interface is now more responsive when presssing "Make album" /
"Rebuild all"
Tools can now be executed from the command line. Use the -runTool switch
You can now upload albums from the command line. Use the -uploadAll or
-smartUpload switches
JAlbum now includes files found in a directory even if they are not present
in an albumfiles.txt file, unless the filenames are prepended with a dash
(-). This should remove the confusion caused when adding images to a
directory and not seeing those presented in the updated album. This was
previously the case if an albumfiles.txt file was present in the image
directory. Note however that the albumfiles.txt file no longer needs to be
edited manually. It is handled by JAlbum's new graphical album explorer
interface.
Updated installer (InstallAnywhere by Macrovision) from v6.1 to v7.1. This
will hopefully solve problems installing JAlbum on some platforms.
Bundled Chameleon skin (former DarkOSX) which comes in many stylish styles.
Thank you Laza!
Bundled skin BluPlusPlus updated to v3.7. Thank you Armond
Bundled skin ExhibitPlus updated to v1.4a. Thank you Mark
The ignore pattern is now case insensitive
Turkish translation added. Thank you Bahadir Yigit and Andreas Berger
Croatian translation added. Thank you Ivo
Bug fixes:
Several skins used to check for existence of flash info in order to figure
out if images contained EXIF information. This wasn't safe. Checks are now
done on camera make instead
Would throw a ClassCastException if encountering images with unexpected
EXIF formatting (aperture value encoded as decimal string instead of
rational number)
The Experience skin would give a scripting error if encountering images
with weird EXIF originalDate setting
