There are several gallery modules. Which one can be used for creating personal album for each user? Thanks!

Gallery-module will do that. The module is a 'portal' between Gallery and Drupal. All the settings and stuff can be quite overwhelming. It's a great module, but I'm not quite comfortable with a whole seperate gallery running besides Drupal... I like some more integration.

You can use Views-module in combination with CCK-module and create an image-content-type. With the views-module you can then create an album-page per person. I think you probably want ImageCache-module too, for creation of thumbnails etc.

Here is the code I use for a

Here is the code I use for a view that I created for per user image galleries. All you need is the CCK, imagefield, and image cache modules. Gallery2 can do the job, but this is, in my opinion, a lot easier to implement.

  $view = new stdClass();
  $view->name = 'per_user_image_gallery';
  $view->description = 'Individual user image galleries';
  $view->access = array (
);
  $view->view_args_php = '';
  $view->page = TRUE;
  $view->page_title = 'User galleries';
  $view->page_header = 'Each registered user has his/her own image gallery.  The links below indicate the user name; the number in parentheses is the number of images the user\'s gallery holds. ';
  $view->page_header_format = '3';
  $view->page_footer = '';
  $view->page_footer_format = '1';
  $view->page_empty = '';
  $view->page_empty_format = '1';
  $view->page_type = 'list';
  $view->url = 'member/galleries';
  $view->use_pager = TRUE;
  $view->nodes_per_page = '6';
  $view->sort = array (
  );
  $view->argument = array (
    array (
      'type' => 'uid',
      'argdefault' => '3',
      'title' => '%1\'s Photo Album',
      'options' => '',
      'wildcard' => '',
      'wildcard_substitution' => '',
    ),
  );
  $view->field = array (
    array (
      'tablename' => 'node',
      'field' => 'title',
      'label' => '',
      'handler' => 'views_handler_field_nodelink',
      'options' => 'link',
    ),
  );
  $view->filter = array (
    array (
      'tablename' => 'node',
      'field' => 'status',
      'operator' => '=',
      'options' => '',
      'value' => '1',
    ),
    array (
      'tablename' => 'node',
      'field' => 'type',
      'operator' => 'OR',
      'options' => '',
      'value' => array (
  0 => 'image',
),
    ),
  );
  $view->exposed_filter = array (
  );
  $view->requires = array(node);
  $views[$view->name] = $view;
