As far as I can tell, no. I don't speak for Creative Commons, though.

What?! Of course you don't! There's a whole slew of image gallery programs that are Open Source and available for commercial and non-commercial use alike. At the very least, try iGal:

Here's a Google search for "Open Source Web photo gallery":

Good luck!
