Simple and elegant. The only thing I would like to see is multiple admins/users.
Lychee (Photo Gallery Script)
I have used this PHP-based script on and off for many years. While I haven't used the latest version, I prefer the older version (3.1.6) because it is so much easier to set up and install. I still have it saved on my disks and will always choose it over the newer versions managed by the current developers.
My Favorite Things About This Script:
★ 100% Free ★ Easy to Use ★ Single User Gallery ★ No Membership Required ★ Options to Hide or Password Protect Albums ★ Version 3.1.6 Is Easy to Set Up & Install ★ Simple Login Access from All Devices
Things I Wish Were Added:
★ ???
There’s nothing about the version I use that I would change. I am happy with it just the way it is!
This is not discontinued and is under active development. New repository is https://github.com/LycheeOrg/Lychee .
Effectively not discontinued
A great free PHP based script for setting up photo galleries on your websites. I have used this script off & on many years. I had high hopes that in the upcoming updates they would add more features though like sub folders, video uploading, etc. Not really a reason for me to remove any stars though because out of all the galleries out there offered that i have tried both free & paid this is by far my #1 favorite & first choice every time.
[ Pros ]
[ Cons ]
needs a bit more and sub folders to allow sorting
