Zen Photo Themes
This site is set up as a central place for Zenphoto themes.

Zenphoto is an answer to lots of calls for an online gallery solution that just makes sense. After years of bloated software that does everything and your dishes, zenphoto just shows your photos, simply. It's got all the functionality and "features" you need, and nothing you don't. Where the old guys put in a bunch of modules and junk, we put a lot of thought. We hope you agree with our philosopy: simpler is better.
Don't get us wrong though – zenphoto really does have everything you need for your online gallery, and you'll even stare in awe at some of the innovative innovations we innovated upon. Here are some of the wonderful things about it:
Your standard gallery stuff, the way everyone knows it should work: index, albums, and images. And of course, automatically generated thumbnails and sized-down images for your time and bandwidth saving pleasure.
Upload any way you like. Want to use FTP? Stick your photos in a new folder in the /albums folder, and it's an album. Want to use your web browser? Hit the control panel, click upload, enter some names and load your pics. Simple. Want to use e-mail? Sorry, not ready yet. E-mail your picture to your grandmother and she can probably figure it out.
Comments! Just like on your blog, people can leave comments. Just like on your blog, you can smite them down with a single click if you don't like them.
AJAX-powered edit-while-you-browse, yes, just like flickr (we like flickr, but we also already pay for lots of online storage, hence, we like zenphoto).
Theme engine! Kind of like a steam engine, but more powerful... except when pulling a train. The theme engine is completely flexible; you can make your own themes, you can switch how your whole gallery looks at the click of a button, and you can make it look like your blog! (yeah, let's see you do that, flickr...).
That's just the beginning. There's lots more in store for zenphoto in the future, as you can see in the roadmap/to-do list. Major plans include native WordPress integration (in many sexy ways), sorting by dragging around the little thumbnail thingies (done), EXIF, RSS, Plugin API, Searching, custom dynamic and user-defined groupings, and even more! Keep checking back for news and new versions.
