After a long thought, I have planned to use Coppermine instead of Gallery 2 for my photo gallery. Gallery is good. No doubt about it. Still, I am not happy with lot of parts. I don't have the time to hack it to customize as well. I found Coppermine best suits my requirements out of the box. I am on the way of creation of a theme that mimics the theme that the journal uses now. Once the theme is ready, the gallery should be up in no time. Even though I have chosen Coppermine, there is a thought in my mind that I will miss the gallery badly. Well let me see that if I have a change in plan before putting up Coppermine on production.
