phTagr

phTagr is an opensource social web gallery for your homepage or community to organize, enrich and share your images and videos! If you like Flickr and you use Gallery2 — you will definitely love phTagr!

With phTagr you can organise your media of your digital camera easily by enriching tags or categories to them. The media will be grouped by date, location, or even GPS coordinates! With the built-in slideshow and the combinable search of meta data lets review your specific media set smoothly.

More about the web gallery

You can easily upload, manage, and download files using phTagr. Discuss the media though comments and get updates of new media/comments via RSS or MediaRSS.

Images and videos are no more organized in folders, instead the data is accessed through their meta data e.g. view all screenshots though the category “screenshot“. phTagr reads (and writes) the meta data of EXIF and IPTC from images into a database backend to speed up the access to your images. In the same time in enables flexible filtering and searching of meta data like date, tags, categories and locations (also with exclusion of tags, categories, etc.!).

phTagr is ideal to publish and share your media in the Internet, too. Group based access control allows you to keep your personal files private and allows in the same time selected access for your friends including the original files.
