Building a photo sharing website with dynamic webpage creation

I'm wanting to build a (hopefully) simple website where I can upload one or more photos and that the photos I upload are then displayed on a newly created webpage with the ability to add a comment under the displayed photo(s).

The last time I tried to begin creating something like this I ran into odd glitches with asp.net properly displaying a photo from a local file source. I asked for help regarding these glitches on msnews.microsoft.com (back when there was such a thing) but no one was able to give me an answer at the time.

I've been out of the web dev game for a while and need some direction (some helpful tutorials) on how to create such a site. My experience is with vb.net but since I have some interest in learning C#, the tutorials or examples can be in either language.

I have a lot of old family photos that I want to share with just a few (far away) family members and don't want them stored on some commercial site out of my control. I've found that if you want trust, you have to create it yourself and not pass it on to places like facebook. This is one of those things where I want some older members of the family to be able to tell me who certain people are in various old family photos and I think this is one of the best ways to do so which would allow others in the family to also post their comments on each photo. I don't want to have to manually create a webpage for each photo though so that's why I'm wondering about dynamic creation of webpages after photos are uploaded which would allow me to upload photos but also allow my family to do so as well if they wanted to (upload some of their family photos and allow for comments). I can probably handle the built in security myself. I think being able to upload the photos to a file location would be better since there's typically more space allowance by doing it that way versus doing so via a database.

Thanks.
