Meta-tagging is the issue

coppermine as a publishing and meta-tagger. It appears to support this.

Bad thing, MySQL vs PgSQL.

CPG is so fully featured it's not enough to fully list them here. Feel free to have a go with the demo - change the themes, add some comments, see it in Hungarian!

I'm _not_ really looking for a tool for people to share photos with their kids who won't look at them anyway. I need a tagging system for our staff to sift through the thousands of photos we accumulate each year, to find ones appropriate for different advertising projects.
