Will Gallery do all this?

What I'm looking to do is to have a weekly photo contest on my website. I will set up the category and let people upload their images to be entered in the contest.

Will Gallery let users register themselves? Or do I as an Admin have to manually enter them? I have looked into PHP-Nuke and I know it integrates with Gallery, but it's overkill to use Nuke for what I'm looking to do. I just want the users to register themselves.

Also, is there a mod for voting anywhere?? And how could I show the top 5 in each category?

Thanks in advance!

You're looking for a bunch of non-standard features. Gallery was designed with a small number of people to upload photos in mind, and certainly not self-registered users. So for that function you have to install Gallery within a Nuke or Postnuke environment. Otherwise _you_ have to register each and every user.

There's a voting mod <!-- BBCode Start --><A HREF="http://paul.the-pearsons.net/scripts2.html" TARGET="_blank">here</A><!-- BBCode End -->, but I don't think there's an option to show the top 5 in each category. I guess this would require some custom coding...
