Hi! I recently finished my photoblog to complement my portfolio and smugmug galleries. Unlike my portfolio, which is static, I get to update my photoblog everyday and vent on whatever I feel like. I also get to receive comments from my viewers.
Pixelpost, found at
http://www.pixelpost.org/ , is the photoblog web app that I use. Templates are designed for the frontend, while the backend is managed by php and mysql. Some basic html is needed to customize colors and a little layout, but overall, there isn't much necessary for those just looking to get photos up.
My photoblog can be found at:

(might be a little slow...I'm trying to contact my host)
I'd like to hear if anybody else uses pixelpost for their web presentation, or anybody else is interested. I'll be gone this weekend, but I'll be ready to answer questions for any of those attempting to setup a photoblog with pixelpost!
