Media Gallery was inspired by the excellent Gallery Project. Gallery is probably the best open source photo / media management systems available today. Gallery has been integrated with many other open source packages, but it never provided the type of integration I desired. I wanted something a little less featured, easy for Grandparents to use, but yet with enough features to make it easy to manage. Media Gallery is the result of this desire.

To achieve the desired results, I had the opportunity to see how others solved similar problems. Many design features, and in some cases code were borrowed from the Gallery project. Also, the Coppermine Gallery provided ideas and how-to's on accomplishing some features. I looked at several Geeklog plugins to see how they accomplished integration and because of the hard work of others, my job was much easier. Many thanks to those that have allowed me to see their work and in many cases borrow from it!
