I know you want some software to stick the photos on your own site but this is a free site with some nice gallery features that I have used to host some photos in the past.

Lifted from the site....

An Internet photograph gallery, with admin control panel.
Thumbnailed, searchable listings of your photograph collections.
Web address for your gallery - eg. bobsphotos.fotopic.net - or use your own domain name.
Stamping of images with captions, dates, or your web address.
Ordering prints and gifts - including mugs, clocks, t-shirts and phone covers.
Weekly statistics on who's viewed your photographs.
Optional passwords on photos and collections to restrict access.
WAP gallery so you can access your photos from a mobile phone.
Direct linking of images from other websites.
No intrusive adverts or popups.

Or at the other end of the spectrum, there's my 2 image galleries, http://shad.tv/stvgallery and STVG2 (not finished yet) at http://images.shad.tv/

Neither require databases, or cataloging (uses the file system) and both take aobut 5 minutes to setup. STVG2 will include auto thumnailing using .NET routines but this isn't implimented yet... Loads of new stuff in STVG2 though, and more when I get round to finishing it

If you have PHP then there is gallery, probably the best online photo album software i've used :

Does the php based gallery need a mysql db?

it doesn't need mysql, no. I use it on my site, and I have to say it is really good. Another vote here anyway.
