The Gallery website should be up. I just checked to make sure. We have load problems sometimes but usually if you wait long enough it eventually shows up.
Gallery is a PHP program that runs with PHP and needs a database program running (typically MySQL). If you have a server or a hosting plan with PHP and MySQL, Gallery is pretty easy to install and get running. There is a lot more information out there and
