    I didn't knew about plogger before 2-3 weeks, but came across when I was frantically searching for something simple, scalable and reliable application to replace my gallery 2 (menalto gallery) mess.

    I had been using gallery 2 for long time, not that I was in love with it, but I was stuck with it. I started with it without much of traffic but as traffic increased it exposed the problems with gallery 2. My previous 3 hosting companies booted me because gallery 2 excessive resource (CPU) usage

    Anyways, I was looking for very simple, basic gallery functionality script which has SEO friendly URLs implemented and easy to operate (like bulk import) and Plogger has been perfect fit.

    I have already migrated my gallery which receives upto 30k pageviews per day and hadn't had any problems at all (in terms of CPU usages).

    Plogger 3 is looking great and hopefully comes out soon.

    I seriously wish development keeps on going for this nice little application. Trust me I have evaluated ton of gallery scripts and Plogger 3 does stand out (even though it has long way to go in terms of features).

    Thank you! Good to hear some reports from the field on the scalability of the app. There was some discussion in the forums awhile back about whether Plogger would scale for large sites with lots of pageviews, looks like it does!

    Hi

    I'd like to congratulate you on what appears to be the best gallery on the web.

    I've used loads of gallery scripts: Gallery2, photography blogs, free providers, really simple ones that just index your directory, really complex ones that use 100's of mySQL tables and take ages to do anything.
    I've made websites in dreamweaver, in notepad, in nVu. I've used imagemaps, thumbnails, flickr-wrappers. I've tried half of the free providers. none of them have been any good.

    And Plogger seems almost perfect! Thanks!!!

    Ideally, I'd love to have something like PBase. Plogger seems to be almost there - the ability to create pages with more choice - not just a load of thumbnails, but text as well, would be great. Apart from that, there is nothing it needs. Please don't make it too complicated. Gallery2 is so complicated it takes a week to disable the features you don't want. (and even then you have to skip through them in the admin panel).

    Thanks again!!!

    Leo
