   Years ago, when #sonTwo started taking Photography courses at the local college, I stood up a site for him using "Gallery 2". We had a bunch of plugins, including a bridge from G2 to a regular CMS, so he could use his main site for authentication on his photo gallery. Then came G3, which never had the same functionality. We tried "Coppermine Photo Gallery" (CPG), and a few more, eventually settling on Koken.
   
   Over time, I was concerned about the lack of continuing security patches, so we pulled it down.
   
   While he's off work for the next few months, he's going to try to do more photography , and he's looking to host his work again. I'd like to be able to suggest something that isn't Flickr / 500px or other #corpocentric site.
   
   Federation is not needed, as he's looking mostly for a way to market his work and maybe sell a few prints. I suggested that he look at #PixelFed, but I don't know enough about it to even be sure it could meet his needs. I don't know if his hosting is capable of something like #MediaGobllin (Python based), but that project is still awakening from a long hibernation.
   
   Anyone have knowledge of a self-hostable PHP based photo gallery?

      This one is starting back up after a few years of hibernation, seems pretty good and the wife is currently using it.

         @geniusmusing Thanks. I sent both links. We used Gallery 2 and 3, but were not happy early in G3's life. Maybe it improved since then.
