i need a good photo album script...

I have used Gallery and it is pretty good and it even has a java frontend (I could never get it to work for some reason). FTp worked just fine thought.
 
Gallery
Coppermine
4images

Are the top 3 open source LAMP(linux/apache/mysql/php) based photo album scripts.
 
I had used coppermine on a phpnuke site. It was the achillies heel that let brazillian script kiddies krack my box. Gallery has had its security exploits as well, but the updates have been easier to install by far. When Coppermine gets exploited, you've got to dig through 20 forum postings to find code snippets that you have to add by hand. I just don't have the time to spend with maintaining coppermine.

Just the experience of an administrator...

I programmed my own from scratch:

gallery.shoeish.com/

It resizes images, accepts zip files, and the like. Its still a work in progress, but hey.
 
^^ i started one that worked ok but just didn't have the time to create all the features i wanted. i found gallery and haven't looked back :). not to stop you from working on your own but in case you were in a situation where you needed something relatively quickly

Gallery never seemed to work for long enough periods of time for my host and me (always some permissions problem or something) so I just wrote my own.

Plus, I wanted easy multiuser stuff so my buddies could put albums and pictures up.
