There are a few of us on the list who use Jalbum and we've had a few threads on its use. I use it for all my galleries and find it really flexible, but relatively straightforward to use.
It's particularly good for the purpose you mentioned, Marnie, where you want to use your own web space and not be tied to the layout you get with Flickr and the like. The built-in FTP site manager is excellent - you can add directories to your gallery and the site manager sorts out and uploads the new bits for you. It's also easy to create a free-standing one-off gallery that isn't linked to anything else - but with the same theme. I use the Chameleon scheme (also used for the PUG I think) and find it a good compromise between simplicity and flexibility. It's also not Flash...
