My favourite is album (http://MarginalHacks.com/Hacks/album).

No databases involved, and everything lives on the server as static

No. :-(
I keep a local copy. Generate everything off-line and upload it with
scp.
But I like album because it's written in embperl, and is very
customisable/themable. And once it's set up and working properly,
adding new content is fairly simple.
It's probably not the best solution for bulk-uploading of pictures from
a digital camera, but for what I'm doing it works well and is pretty
sweet.
My album-based.... album is at http://hardy.dropbear.id.au/Photography/
