User galleries are totally legal. Wikimedia Commons encourages them as long as they are not intended to promote. However, as noted at Commons:User-specific galleries, templates and categories, they must be in a User's own space, not main space. Thus User:Example may have a gallery User:Example/Gallery or User:Example/My Photographs, but not Example, Gallery:Example, or any other personal gallery that does not have the prefix "User:Example/".
