I guess you are right.
So I'll put online some weird samples:
This one:
http://www.aphor.com/gallery/manage.php
is a 100% innovative script that enables you to create
Drag n' drop galleries.
In this sample you can upload pictures, move them, resize them (keeping the shift button pressed), delete them, set their z-index and add a description.
This is something I've never seen on the internet before
then This one:
http://www.autolinker.org
It's a weird, automated system that enables you to add links in a fixed-number list. To do so you have to visit someone else's listed link, that will be removed and changed with yours. The "original link owner" is warned by e-mail, so that he can come back to post his link by visiting another one, etc. etc.
then again (if you can try to handle italian :D):
a virtual PSP where you can navigate screenshots in some original way.
then, a file-system based press:
web tips magazine, a weird but interesting example: it doesn't use any database, but only the real folder structure of the project.
A newsletter, weird as well (everything in autolinker has to be weird
webmaster newsletter
A search engine for aphorisms (I know it's all in italian, sorry

, but nothing hard)

P.S. I'm not responsible for what people's putting online on the gallery site :D
