Gallery2 is a fully featured web gallery that allows for uploading and managing of picture (and other media) albums on line. Gallery2 also comes featured with plugins that make it simple to upload pictures straight from Windows XP and Vista.

Uploading images from a Windows XP directory

First we have to modify the registry to see your gallery in Windows XP. If you have done this already you can skip this step. On your gallery website select Add Item. Then identify the tab "Windows XP" and click on that. Download and run the .reg file listed under Windows XP.
