QuickyPix is an instant thumbnail web photo gallery software in Python.
QuickyPix is a photo gallery system. See history of development.
QuickyPix is not for everyone. If you don't know anything about web and CGI
applications yet want a kitchen sink of features in your web gallery, I
recommend Gallery. If you want a very small base for developing your own
gallery software you might try Pix, on which QuickyPix was originally based.
