Re: Show HN: Lychee — Self-hosted photo-management done right
#2I 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!

#3Nice. A few questions (I might add more, just using the demo)
1. How does it deal with mixed landscape and portrait images?
2. Is preloading the next image possible?
3. Scrollbars are appearing, I can't work out why, e.g. on http://electerious.com/lychee_demo/#3/13901681813613

#4This is beautiful. AFAIK, the alternatives are either a self-hosted blog (not ideal, strips out EXIF data etc.) or something hideous like Piwigo.
Awesome!

1. If the image is to tall/wide it will be scaled to fit into your browser. This happens via CSS. Photos won't be compressed or scaled, Lychee keeps their original quality and dimensions. You can click the 'Full Photo' button on the top right to see the file.
2. Nope. Not at the moment.
3. Does this happen only sometimes or always? Which browser and OS are you using?

#6I like it very much; both the code and interface seem clean and lightweight.
You should use mysqli prepared statements though, after a quick glance over the code I can't quite shake the feeling that there might be some sql injections lurking.

#7Awesome. Certainly one of the most elegants solutions. Any plans to add video support?

Koken might be an other alternative. http://koken.me
