I have been using a bit of code I wrote for some of the small photo albums I uploaded here and decided I will polish it up a bit and make it available for download if anyone else is interested. This is not a big system for managing 100s of photos, it is designed to be ideal for showing up to 30 or so images in a nice clean manner.
You basically untar the distribution into the directory of your choice, copy your images into the img/ subdirectory. Create a list of files to display with something as simple as “cd img ; ls > list.txt” and add individual captions for photos by editing photo.jpg.txt. More info in the README file.
It supports themes and I think it is quite easy to create your own using the two provided in the tarball as a starting point. It can also work along with mod_rewrite to make nice looking URL’s but you can configure it to work without mod_rewrite as well.
Written in PHP and only needs your basic PHP, nothing fancy. Two samples exist of installations one using the provided black theme and one using the white theme both of these samples use mod_rewrite.
