First off: Good job so far.

Thanks :)

Quote:
- Private and Public galleries

Our Pro version will have this feature. For statically generated sites, we will be putting in a .htpasswd management script into LinkSQL,which will write the names of the users which can access parts of the site. Its pretty cool stuff :)

Quote:
- Ability for user to create new directories

This sounds similar to what I'm working on now. It will allow you to have 'user contributed galleries' , probably going through the Editor system. People can signup, and once admin validate them, they can submit their own gallery.

Quote:
- Ability for user to move / reorganize directories and images

The editor system will probably do the job here. Would need a few modifications to the editor templates though, as they would need to actually see the image, rather than just a link.

Quote:
Admin ability to give users posting privileges to galleries other than a user's "private" galleries

Again, this is something we will be putting in the Pro version.

Quote:
- Ability to upload a ZIP file, have it unzipped, thumbnails created and all images placed in a directory

I have something almost like that at the moment. You upload a load of images into a web-readable URL (i.e on your site somewhere), and then have a list of the images in a CSV/tab/pipe file. The script then reads the data you sent to it, grabs the images, and adds them to the link (with the title/description or whatever else you pass along to it). You can also do a direct import of images in a folder, and they will be named according to their file name. The first one is the prefered usage, as it handles images that are originally based on another URL to your LinksSQL install.

Quote:
- Sort thumbs by rating, date, hits or name

Not quite sure what you mean here?

Also, it would be nice if the thumbnails were displayed in rows, and if users had the ability to select how many thumbs they wanted to view per page. I think listing thumbs top to bottom does not make for a good image browsing experience. See the [Thumbs/Page: 16 24 32] links at the top of my ImageFolio install here.

Yeah, thats quite a cool idea. What I expect I will do, is have a modified template set, which doesn't have such a large amount of details on the image, so you can get 2-3 or even 4 images per row. Nice idea.. thanks :)

Quote:
Some good import scripts from the most popular gallery apps (ImageFolio, PhotoPost etc) will be great as well.

Definatly! I think we will include the ImageFolio one and PhotoPost in the Lite version of ImageSQL, and a few more for the Pro version.

Thanks for your feedback Cool

Cheers
