Photo upload tool?

[menage]

Not sure if this belongs in this section but here we go.

I'm looking for an easy to use, free, photo upload thingy to implement on a website. I'm making a site for a client and she said she wants something on it so she can easely manange her photo uploading to the site. Rather than having to do it the ftp way I'm looking for a thing which puts them in a lightbox or something from a webbased app.

Anyone have experience with this stuff. I rarely build stuff like that so I figured there's bound to be someone who has a good tip with this. Easy to use on the user part is a must.

Tnx

I've used Photobucket (http://photobucket.com/) for a while. There's also flickr (http://www.flickr.com/), which people seem to dig. Both are free.

Those are more external fileservers I think, I'd prefer something I could use to upload stuff to her own site without having their brand attached.

Why not set up the website on a very simple content management system—something like CMSMS (http://www.cmsmadesimple.org/)? It's the system I learned on how to go from lengthy HTML pages, to creating themes for CMSs, saving me a lot of time and heartache.

It will literally take you one day to learn it, and after that, it's smooth sailing. You and your client can manage pages, menus, photogalleries, contact forms, etc... It's modular as well, so if you find you need something that it doesn't do out of the box, there's probably a module that does it.

First CMS based website I created: http://newamericancarservice.com/

Wordpress is a popular CMS. And there's plenty of Lightbox plugins that you can find for it in their plugin directory.
