GlassDuckis a newly released javascript based photo album, which organizes photos by date and automatically displays new pictures.  Live demo is available at http://jehiah.com/photos/ .  The script is available for free download.

There is very little server side coding involved except one simple page which serves up a list of image file names. That part is written in PHP, although according to author Jehiah Czebotar it could easily be redone in ColdFusion, ASP, or Python.

GlassDuck works well with large number of images.  All the album requires is that the images be in the format MM-DD-YY_HHMMSS.jpg (where second is optional). The files get sorted into three folders based on image sizes of 800x600, 400x300, and 40x30.
