The Definitive Image Gallery Engine / Plugin Guide

I want to get a good list of image gallery engines of all flavours: Stand alone, plugins for Wordpress or Rails, AJAX, no AJAX, using simple folders or a database on the server.

Please state what is needed (eg MySQL and Django) to run each item if possible. Thanks!

[I asked a similar question a while back but had limited responses. Hopefully with more users and a small bounty this will pick up more steam. EDIT - can't attach a bounty for two days. Hold tight.]

These are the ones I recall at the moment, they are all easy to integrate and they don't require much implementation to use. They all have a good and appealing design. Hope it helps.

Cooliris: Runs on flash, uses an RSS feed to show the images
FancyBox: Jquery Plugin, you just need to have create an < a ref... arround the < img src...
LightBox: jQuery plugin, also easy to use.
Photo Slider: jQuery plugin, as some thumbnails bellow which you can use to slide through the images
SimpleViewer: Nice Design, shows thumbnails and images
HighSlide JS: Javascript viewer

Here is a nice photogallery using silverlight. Slide.Show is another slick Silverlight gallery. There are many gallery modules available for DotNetNuke, and an official module. There are also a great many available on Codeplex.
