+This package includes two separate applications. In the www dir, there is the
+PHP frontend app, the convert dir includes a simple (too simple i guess) script
+that converts your wildcard of images into three subdirs in the current
+directory. You can easily create and upload all images using:
+
+   mkdir temp
+   cd $_
+   /path/to/imgconv *.png *.gif *.{jpeg,jpg}
+   scp -rp ./web-gallery me@my_server:public_html/galleries/gallery_name
+
+and that's it.
+
+Tuomas Kuosmannen (tigert@tigert.com) has created a Nautilus script to create
+"original" galleries (check the REQUIREMENTS file). Just copy the
+convert/contrib/webgallery.pl file to ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts and make sure it's got
+the execute bit set.
+
+# UPDATE
+
+   Apart from using netpbm package (http://sourceforge.net/projects/netpbm/) for
+   scaling images, the new webgallery-zenity.pl script uses Larry Ewing's
+   gdk-pixbuf-based scaler. See REQUIREMENTS for details.
+
+   Latest versions of the tools can be found at
+   http://jimmac.musichall.cz/original.php3
+
+Various Notes
+=============
+
+Gallery Dates
+-------------
+By default, original uses the directory timestamp to figure out the date of the
+gallery. If I need to tweak it, i use `touch -d`. However some folks requested
+a more convenient (is it?) way, using a "$gallery/date.txt" file. This
+functionality has been replaced by the mew meta info file - info.txt:
+
+  Info.txt format
+	---------------
+
+	The file is a simple text of "key|value" pairs on separate lines. The '|'
+	separator is used, since you may want to use '=' and ':' as you're free to
+	use html markup in the file. Make sure you use a utf8 capable editor.
+
+	Some useful keys:
+	-----------------
+
+	date - can be used to override the timestamp of the directory
+	name - you can override the dir name if you prefer not using utf8 filenames
+	description - _short_ dexcription. Will be show in the index page.
+	author - Useful if the photographer isn't you.
