This is trivial to do with Zope. I wrote a "VarImage" product for it that will do the image manipulation you want handily. I never really created a "gallery" product for it because it's so trivial to do with a regular Zope folder and a couple of scripts, but I would be happy to share my Gallery template with you if your interested. The current version of VarImage even implements things like HTTP_REFERER blocking (or watermarking if you prefer), to discourage remote-linking of your images, etc. An online example can be seen here: http://narya.net/Gallery Not sure about CGI methods of doing it, though. -- Terry Hancock ( hancock at anansispaceworks.com ) Anansi Spaceworks http://www.anansispaceworks.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
