Mage - A .NET Image Gallery
What is Mage?
Mage is an image gallery written in VB.NET, ASP.NET that uses SQL Server as a back-end database. Mage came about for a number of reasons.
- I kind of wanted to write my own image gallery.
- I wanted to write software that people might actually use.
- There are very few options for people who want/need a .NET based image gallery.
