Advice needed on coding/design

Hi all
I have a website working well already, albeit a bit basic.

I want to have a link from it that does the following:

Its essentially a Forum that allows people to comment against picture, (very old genealogy ones)

I have the SQL side working using a dummy forms.

I want it to be dynamic, in case I decide to add photos, but new photos would only be added by the administrator, this bit also works.

I have the file name and path in the SQL database, and the photos in a sub folder of my server.

Currently there are two hundred photos, but this could increase.

My thoughts are: have the photos shown in a scrollable page, but at the lower thumbstyle resolution, if the image is clicked, it opens up the full sized image and also the data entry fields for the fotum.

As I said I want it to be dymamic, where the photo is shown on screen based on a variable, rather than hard coded.

Any pointers gratefully accepted, or even code snippets, however I do want to do this myself, as its the only way to learn.

Thanks

GY

you could use facebook comments for a discussion, i used to use that with an older custom site design

wordpress can handle lots of images as can any custom site design
