transform an existing Photogallery-Script into a WordPress-Plugin?

i’m posting my request in here, hoping that other people are also interested to have a workaround for this

i’d really love to see a plugin for the folderblog gallery script. if i had any php-coding skill or some more experience i’d love to write it on my own, but…. ^
(btw there is a new beta release v3.0 of it available giving the photobloggers more opportunities to customize it)
the idea behind folderblog is: upload images into folders -> the php-script generates all pages offering comments (for each image), rss-feed, and a lot more. Most important in its behavior:
folderblog doesnt need a database to work, what is fine this way not to say KISS…

as folderblog generates main and archive-view from template files, and folderblog-specific parameters are needed to handle (open) a certain image(-page) i had difficulties to integrate it into a static wordpress-page with RunPHP-Plugin or PHPExec.
i think the Errors occured because WordPress has its own (page, post, …)
maybe there are already enough plugins out there to get a workaround for me? i have no idea now…

one idea, i had, was to make the folderblog-files be able reading the corresponding wp-database-tables in order to get all necessary things to show the sidebar on a folderblog page.
is this possible? (idea came up because my try integrating fb into wp failed – so i thought “why not integrate wp-sidebar into fb…?”)

is this the right way to go?

i hope my posts’ intention came across 😐
hope someone can help!
thanks in advance 🙂
