Is there any way to get some kind of file browser for my website? Just something that you can view directories. I have hundreds of pictures up on my site, and I want to give someone a link to view them. Something like a ftp browser, but without signing into anything.

Have a look into coding your own with PHP, pretty simple to do :)

So something like this (http://www.treemenu.net/) is what I should look into?

Yeah, you'd want a tree menu system. You could use that :) I always prefer to learn to do it my self personally :)

Well web browsers have native file browsers if your directory is set to show contents.

How would I be able to set the permissions so people would be able to see the contents, using Filezilla or Fireftp?

Wasn't thinking more of that -- though that might be possible too -- I was just thinking of browsing with firefox or ie or chrome or something to a default server page that lists directory contents.

I got it to do that, but it needed admin permissions.

chmod the directory to 755 in your FTP program.
