If you have shell access and either image magick or magickimage, use
shalbum.
Shalbum is FAST, has a lot of greate features, and zips through image files.
Technically, what it does is take a directory full of images, and a
bunch of parms, and creates 2 new versions of each image(a thumbnail and
a fullsize), places them all in a new set of directories, and creates a
simple set of HTML pages to navigate between them as a photo gallery.
But I find it easy to use for practically anytime I need to create a
couple hundred thumbnails and I don't want to have to deal with a PHP
script timing out(if run over the web) or any other issues.
