[Web4lib] seeking software for putting photographs on the web

 Have you tried IrfanView?  They added some functionality around
thumbnails in their last release, but I haven't tried it.
Irfanview.com

What are you currently using to make thumbnails?  I know newer versions
of photoshop can apply transformations to a group of images.  Otherwise
I've used Imagemagick on multiple occasions in the past to generate
thumbnails. 
As for the rest, not sure what to tell you.  I've seen various
flickr-like server packages out there, but can't remember any off-hand.
