Megan and I have finally added some photos to our Living in Mexico - Year Two gallery. We've begun the process of transitioning our galleries to Picassa Web Albums from Google.
I like the application, but not as much as the custom solution that we had built to host our galleries on my own server. The big issue right now is that we can't find a tool to upload our photos to a self-hosted gallery software. I had used a iPhoto plugin called Photon (no longer being supported or developed) which allowed me to upload photos to our old galleries that were in a Movable Type blog, but unfortunately I can't get Photon to install on my new computer's version of iPhoto. We looked at moving to a dedicated gallery software, but the iPhoto pluggin that would be allow us to upload to that software is also not being developed. The obvious advantage of hosting our own photos is that there is no meaningful space limitations on my webhost (I currently have over 250 GB of available diskspace). Picassa Web Albums only gives you 1GB of space for photos. The other advantage is being able to customize the look and feel of our galleries.
Anybody have a killer self-hosted gallery solution that works well with iPhoto?
Might look at these guys. Lots of different styles. I use it on my web with FTP

Gallery is also supported via DreamHost, so that's good.
