One of my first large scale PHP projects I wrote for fun and learning.  At that time
nothing even close to this type of web based project existed (for free anyway).
IPA allows uploading of pictures and will automatically create small thumbnails.  Allows
for adding a title to each picture as well as comments.  Great for family and friends.


Requirements
------------
PHP version 4.0.6 or better (just a guess, may require 4.1.X)
Webserver with PHP enabled (tested on Apache but should work with others)
A couple of directories where you have read and write permission


Installation
------------
1. Copy all the files to a directory on your webserver.
2. In that directory create two directories called 'data' and 'pictures'.
   Make sure that PHP can read and write to these directories.
3. Edit the ipa.php file and make any changes needed to the top of the file.
4. (Optional) Edit the intro.inc file and create your own greeting.
5. Enjoy!


Important Notes
---------------
1. You will have to enable or compile in the GD extension in your php to create thumbnails
2. If you will be uploading large files you must edit your php.ini file and adjust the
upload_max_filesize setting and probably the max_execution_time or the script will just die
3. If you are working with large image files you will also have to increase your memory_limit
value to account for the process of making high quality thumbnails.
