Lightbox + PHPGD = Simple Soultion
Are you tired of "PHP Galleries" that are "easy" to install, only to leave you with two copies of the image on your server, or requiring you to make a thumbnail image of the picture. That can be time consuming and quite litterally a pain in the ass. What if, depending on your server of course, you could drop images into a folder, and poof, your done.
If you have a PHP and GD compliant webserver and you want a cool lightbox image gallery that is easy to update and maintain with the use of ftp then download the latest Synapse Lightbox.
Take a peek at the source below. Click here to see it in action.
If your using our lightbox solution and would like to donate, feel free to do so here:

Heading Level 3
So stop waiting until you finish school, until you go back to school, until you lose ten pounds, until you gain ten pounds, until you have kids, until your kids leave the house, until you start work, until you retire, until you get married, until you get divorced, until Friday night, until Sunday morning, until you get a new car or home, until your car or home is paid off, until spring, until summer, until fall, until winter, until you are off welfare, until the first or fifteenth, until your song comes on, until you've had a drink, until you've sobered up, until you die, until you are born again to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy…
Happiness is a journey, not a destination.
