Zenphoto is a standalone gallery CMS that just makes
sense and doesn’t try to do everything and your dishes. We hope you agree
with our philosophy: simpler is better. Don’t get us wrong though – Zenphoto
really does have everything you need for web media gallery management.
Actually Zenphoto is more than just a gallery for
images! It also features multimedia support for audio and video and is even
capable of running your entire portfolio website including a news section (blog)
and custom pages. This makes Zenphoto the ideal CMS for illustrators,
artists, designers, photographers, film makers and musicians.
This is just the current list of Zenphoto’s main
features. There’s more in store for Zenphoto in the future, as you can
see in the
roadmap. Keep checking back for news and new versions. Sound good?
