CLI, with an optional configuration file. In the configuration file, I can state in which order I want to pictures to be displayed (by default, it takes the order the pictures are in the directory), whether pictures need to be rotated (my camera doesn't track this), any descriptions I'd like to be shown, and whatever else I'd like to record. Everything being optional. I don't need to an HTTP server to create (or configure) my albums, and I don't even need one to view my albums. firefox index.html works fine. All I need to create an album is vi (for the config file), convert (to scale/rotate/crop images) and jhead (to get the exif information). Oh, and Perl. And since I sometimes work on an album on my laptop, I've a 'sync' option that uses rsync to sync from my laptop to my server. A server that doesn't have CGI enabled.
