That would be very helpful. Thanks I had in mind something like:

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
#!/bin/sh
ls *.jpg > /tmp/jpeglist
for FILENAME in `cat /tmp/jpeglist`
do
 <make thumbnail and save to $FILENAME.sm>
done
rm /tmp/jpeglist
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

That would leave me to do the HTML index manually.
