I've been searching the site for a while for a simple photo gallery that display photos using Drupal's Taxonomy similar to Flickr.com.

I also wanted an Ajax display that will preload the next image in the album similar to http://picasaweb.google.com.

So, I decided to write my first module to do both of the above. I use Picasa (google's image browser) to tag and caption all of my photos. I export them to my hard drive and upload them to the server. Using a mass import, it creates albums depending on the directory name that I uploaded. If your server can read ITPC tags, then the images will be imported assigning each keyword to a taxonomy. Also, it uses EXIF to set the creation date of each imported image.

This is my first attempt at creating a module, so I am looking for lots of feedback! Also, this is in a very beta state, and does get errors in Internet Explorer.

I'm glad to finally see back/next buttons in a photo gallery! (although I have not downloaded and tested this yet).

Here is another AJAX slideshow that may provide some codes fixes for you.
