CMS with SE-Friendly Photo Gallery?

    I've got a site with a lot of pictures and am getting good traffic from Google image search.

    I'd like to do a new site based on the first one, built from scratch with a lot of new pictures, plus a few articles.

    The main draw will hopefully continue to come from Google images.

    I was thinking about doing Mambo or Joomla and then slapping a photo gallery onto it like "Gallery".

    OR, should I just use Wordpress and link it to a Gallery install... or is there something all-inclusive I could use?

    BTW, is "gallery" the best choice for se-friendly image search?

    Thanks in advance.

    check out the photopress theme available at performancing or the PhotoWP theme by SteveCampbell.

    They would do great themes since you're on Wordpress and using it as a photoblog

    The photo site in my signature runs Drupal + Acidfree (uses SEF URLs).
    Gallery seems a bit heavy for my taste.

    EDIT: The developer of Acidfree (single guy) is very accessible too and listens to feedback :)

    I have wasted few weeks looking for a seo friendly cms but finally wordpress which is a blog platform took the title.

    joomla slow down on high traffic unless you have a dedicated server or vps.
    Dragon fly and php fusion are greatest and seo friendly too but they lacks extension and fame

    The "something all-inclusive" would be:

    http://www.galleryembedded.com/

    WPG2 is a Wordpress Plug-in that embeds Gallery2 within Wordpress to share photos, videos and any other Gallery2 content seamlessly into the Wordpress Sidebar and Blog entries. It integrates the blog and gallery logins together. But if your site's focus is going to be on the Gallery pages, I would leave them separated (w/o this plugin).

    WP is great choise but let me tell you this.If you have a lot of content e.x pictures and 10-20k imp/day your hosting is going to ask you to hire vps or if your website become more popular -dedicated server.I am pissed how much time I lost doing project with WP.
