pix is a hacker-friendly, online picture gallery system written in python. It has minimal features but also minimal complexity and external dependencies. It uses your directories to organize pictures, creates and caches thumbnails and web friendly image sizes as well.

pix is very transparent in that it doesn't bend over backwards to map the file system reality to what you want your image gallery to look like. pix works with what is there, no more, no less.

Here are some key features of "pix":
easy modification of appearance with a simple template file
pictures are organized using the file system, you create a directory hierarchy that makes sense for your pictures.
comments for each picture are placed in a simple text .meta file in each album, here's an example
descriptions for the album are also placed in the .meta file placed in the given directory.
thumbnails and web optimized images are created from the original images as needed these files are cached in the file system and re-used. the cache can be cleaned online by appending &admin=clean to an album url.
