Hi!
EzPublish is one of few cms wich I consider to use on my site. Mainly it will be gallery - I`ve looked on demo-gallery site, but I didn`t see few options, wich I need.
First: I`m looking for comment and rating option for each photo- is it possible?
Second: I`m looking for some option, that thumbnail photo will be an link to full-sized photo opened in second page (target=_blank)
Third: I`m looking for some option, wich will adding watermark for my photos
Fourth: Is some upload module in Ez ?
Fifth: Is it possible to registered users can add photo to gallery?

I think that`s all, what I need. BTW: sorry for language errors, english isn`t my native language.

1) With some template modifications you can add the ability for registered users to comment on your photos. Ratings could be built as an option, but does not exist that I know of.
2) There is already in the forums a template modification that will allow you to open a photo large size in a new window
3) I believe that you can adjust image conversion settings in ImageMagick to add a watermark to the images
4) Uploading is included, to upload 1 image at a time. Also available is a WebDav module that allows you to a desktop application to load images directly. This would be the best bet for large amounts of images.
5) You can allow registered users to create their own images with a few simple changes to the roles and policies.

All that being said, if you are truly just in need of a gallery, and not any of the more powerful content management functions for other types of content, you should consider Gallery 2 (http://gallery.menalto.com/) as it is a simpler solution to present just a gallery, and includes all of the features you mention.
