I need to add photoblogs to Movable Type

Help. I need to add photo galleries to my Movable Type blog. I’ve looked around at some options, but haven’t seen anything that fits the bill. Most are just too technical for me, requiring my blog to be served as PHP pages.

Anybody have any pointers?

My real hope is that the folks at Six Apart rev MT a few times now that they’ve officially launched TypePad. They’ve promised MT updates, including a Pro version that would incorporate many of the new features found in TypePad. Hopefully soon.

    Hey Dave,

    Had a great time at Zap myself.

    As for the Gallery thing, try Gallery-PHP. It’s a PHP gallery that will sit on your server and handle your images easily. You can skin it with a bit of effort to make it look like the rest of your blog but that’s not REALLY necessary. Set up and installation isn’t too hard, just follow the steps spelled out in the guide.

    If you have any questions, just drop ma line.
