Finally got my new galleries up. If the image has EXIF data, which all of mine do, you can see the data by rolling over the "Image Data" tab at the top left of the image.
I used the PEL PHP library ( http://pel.sourceforge.net/ ) to extract the data from the image and store it in the "images" database table. If the image doesn't have the EXIF data, it doesn't matter.
I modifed the code in several places and when I'm sure it's housebroken, I'll see what needs to be done to merge it in if everybody thinks it's worthwhile.
The galleries aren't real design efforts, I was just getting the functionality down.

I am interested in EXIF data - could you provide a link to your gallery?

A link would be helpful, wouldn't it?

Cunan! Nice effort here. Always helps to have great shots to show off the gallery design work I like this layout and would be interested in using it.

But that's just one vote.

Keep up the good work!

This is not my gallery at all, it's actually rickindy's.

That being said I really like it. I would be very interested in the code for retreiving the EXIF data that you used if you would be willing to share it. Great work.

Sorry it took so long for me to reply.

Thanks for the compliments!

I'd be happy to share the code with anyone. It does contain several modifications to the class and function files.

What I reall ywould like to have happen would be for the changes I have made to be integrated into the project.

The EXIF data seems to be a feature that is requested a lot and the PEL library is GPL'd like this whole project is.

Hopefully one of the ZP developers will read this and contact me about integerating it.
If not, I'm not sure what to do with it, since it seems like upgrading from the current release to what I have would be quite a project.

@rickindy

A year is gone...and yes I would like to have your code.

Espesially the solution to display Exif information only "on demand" is nice.

Hi Rickindy,

Can I have you're modified version too?
