Hi All,

I've just finished hacking a php auto thumbnail generator, it does 
recursive directory listing making and supports png, jpeg and now gif! The 
maintenance of a scanned archive should be made relatively simple by this 
script.  I'd ignore the beta links on my first post and use this one 
instead as It is much better.

I have 3 collections at the moment, the Colorado spring notes, some patents 
and some magazines.

Thanks

Chris
