Create a multi-album system, with password protection. Also multi-user features (ie: different users have their own album space, with similar abilities for password protection).

dunno how alive this project is but for the password protection if you are running it on apache is create a .htaccess file and setup a user id and password to access the folders you want. Just drop the .htacess file in each folder you want proected...

Actually, that won't work. It needs to be embedded into the code itself to do authentication. It could be done, I've got a "change your Unix password" script that does it. Just have it check for a __password file in the cache dir for every album, and make sure the browser is sending in a correct username and password. You could even set this per-image if you were nuts.
As far as having it work for multiple users, that would require a paradigm shift from what PHPix is right now. I may rewrite the thing for the next major version and include stuff like this, but not right away. Anyhow, it should be simple enough to install for multiple users, and the code size is pretty small compared to the images it's likely to be dealing with.
