I'm currently developing a gallery geared towards photographers and I'm looking for feature suggestions. Here's what I have built in so far or will have.

-Zip/Web/FTP upload
-Albums
-Search (date, tags, name)
-Comments (Register/Everyone)
-Skinable via PHPTAL
-Thumbnails ( Proportional or pick your own size )
-Cropping
-Resizing
-exif data
-Photographer's comment ( a snippet of information or story pertaining to the photograph )

I really like the idea of upload via Zip! Perhaps you should add a watermark feature?
