cphoto is…

an HTML photo album generator. It more or less takes a directory of images and creates thumbnails and cropped images (as you specify) and wraps it all up into a pretty HTML package. cphoto generates static sites so nothing has to be running on the server.

Oh yeah, cphoto is open source and free. See license for more details.
