I use a coppermine gallery for a fansite I run with a friend. I have absolutely no idea how to make a layout (I found a free one somewhere  ), but I could help you get it set up if you need some help. Once you have it all installed, it's actually quite easy to add pictures  _________________

The first step would be to download the script from the Coppermine website. Then you can look in the files and in the folder called 'docs', you'll find a README.html file that will help you with installing the gallery. Since I'm hosting you, I can tell you that coppermine will work with our webserver, so you don't need to check that
I guess I'll just wait until you start setting it up, and if you have any specific questions, just let me know _________________

JF - No worries I'd download the "Coppermine - 1.4.12 (stable)"
lady_E - yes, Freewebs will not support a Coppermine gallery you will need a host that supports PHP, which freewebs does NOT _________________

yup  but make sure you keep things in the correct folders
for example, say you create a new folder called "coppermine" > upload all the files from the cpg144 folder that you downloaded directly into "coppermine", but when you downloaded the coppermine script, some of the files were in folders like "albums", "bridge", ect., so make sure when you upload them to your site, put them in the same folders so all the files in "albums" should be uploaded in a folder called "albums" inside the "coppermine" folder
did that make any sense? lol I'm sorry if it's so messy and confusing...
here's a screenshot of what mine looks like in FTP:
I suck at explaining things. sorry _________________

Do any of you two know what host would be best for me? www.beauty-in-the-broken.co.nr <--- Site that needs the gallery! Could i join the gallery onto that site, and use the host for the Gallery only? _________________ <a href="http://www.arwen-undomiel.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=20020" target="_blank"><img src="http://i43.tinypic.com/2ias6qf.jpg" border="0" alt="COME AND REQUEST SOME PHOTOS, OR JUST BROWSE"></a>

There is an option when uploading to upload a "folder" rather than a file, and I chose that and it was creating seperate folders inside the coppermine file, I aborted though because I thought I might have been doing something wrong. 
So I think if I do that again, it will sort them out for me, like you have above. yup yup right you are!

Weeell... I finally found time to upload all the files and everything, and I have changed the permissons on the directories, like it said.
But it says now I need to create a MySQL database? And I'm not sure how I do that or if I already have one.
