Coppermine Photo Gallery

The Coppermine Photo Gallery, or simply Coppermine, uses GD or ImageMagick as an image processing toolkit and works on top of a MySQL backend.

Everyone on the Internet knows what Coppermine is and what's it for, most people using or accessing such a tool at least once in their life while navigating the Web.

Created to help out in publishing image-based content, this tool is perfect for online portfolios, image albums, or a plain ol' image repository.

Coppermine is extremely easy to use, easy to install, and comes with pretty low server & hosting requirements, meaning you could install it on most LAMP-based environments around.

While Coppermine might look outdated, its feature set is almost complete when it comes to covering all the properties needed from Web-based image management tools.
