Phtagr

You can easily upload, manage, and download files using phTagr. Discuss the media though comments and get updates of new media/comments via RSS or MediaRSS.

Images and videos are no more organized in folders, instead the data is accessed through their meta data e.g. view all screenshots though the category “screenshot“. phTagr reads (and writes) the meta data of EXIF and IPTC from images into a database backend to speed up the access to your images. In the same time in enables flexible filtering and searching of meta data like date, tags, categories and locations (also with exclusion of tags, categories, etc.!).

phTagr is ideal to publish and share your media in the Internet, too. Group based access control allows you to keep your personal files private and allows in the same time selected access for your friends including the original files.

To see phTagr in action visit the demo page! Fur further details read the blog or visit the wiki. Install instructions could be found here.
