Besides my KnoppMyth box I have a Windows laptop, which I use in my daily work. As such, I use it to import my digital photos from my camera. Naturally I have batch file to copy all the photos directly to my /myth/gallery, so I can view them on the TV screen.

Then I thought I should take it a step forward: a web-based photo gallery. I tested a few, but they had way too much of functionality for my purposes. I ended up with Qdig, which is simple enough, and can be linked directly to my /myth/gallery so I don't have to update it all the time. It also converts thumbnails and you can define a huge range of parameters with it. To install it is not a big job. I did the following to get it working.

Code:
su
apt-get update
apt-get install imagemagick
cd /var/www
wget http://qdig.sourceforge.net/files/qdig.tar.gz
tar xvfz qdig.tar.gz
rm qdig-1.2.9.4.tar.gz
cd qdig
chmod 2777 qdig-files
ln -s /myth/gallery
lynx http://localhost/qdig/index.php
chmod 0755 qdig-files


Now my photo gallery is in http://<mythbox>/qdig/index.php. I also added the some .htaccess protection to that folder. I hope someone finds this helpful. :)
