This is so smooth. Wow. It's been a while since I saw something labelled as "stunning" actually stun me. The ability to tag photos and a commenting system would make it just perfect. Maybe an RSS feed for photos and comments, too?

#74I developed this project in my spare time. It's a self-hosted photo-management-system and a great place to share, store and manage your photos and inspiration. I hope you guys here on HN like it. If you have any questions or feedback, just write it here :) Thanks!
Private albums with a random access token in the url would be awesome (instead of passwords). On a side note, I'd donate 100 bucks for a Lightroom Sync Plugin any minute.

#75This is beautiful. AFAIK, the alternatives are either a self-hosted blog (not ideal, strips out EXIF data etc.) or something hideous like Piwigo. Awesome!
