Bizou

Though opensource web photo gallery software developers claim that their product follows the KISS philosophy (Keep It Simple Stupid), Bizou is even simpler. It is totally free to use and very simple to integrate into websites. Unlike other gallery software, there are no searches, only simple category options. When photos are clicked on however, they do open up in full resolution into a sleek slideshow mode with simple browsing options. Bizou is taken from the French word Bisou, meaning kiss.
