Image Management

I'm doing some web development for a friend. We have a photo page located
at:

http://www.christies-catering.com/photos.aspx

She wants to easily upload images herself, and manage them. The current
implementation is a page turner in Flash and I have to manually upload the
pics via FTP and edit an XML file. Any other ideas? It doesn't have to be
the book metaphor. I could embed something from Windows Live Spaces or
similar. 3rd party components are a possibility too. Silverlight?

Thanks,

Jeff

Re: Image Management

Couple of good tools to get you running - my fave is myweb but may contain
more fucntionality than your after as its a CMS that has gallery capability

or

the Photo Handler - if you add a simple upload page to allow her to place
images it should be a breeze to get working

Re: Image Management

I would rather not re-invent the wheel. What existing services, like
photobucket.com, etc allow you to embed their pages within your own site.
