galley generator?
 

I have a template that contains spots for 15 thumbs 130x174.

I have 30 sets of images in separate subdirectories.

What's the most efficient way to make these galleries?

(I have no thumbs yet, so thumb generation must be included in the process.)

yarrrrr! Arles seems to be a decent Galley maker, matey!

Name all the files in each directory 01.jpg, 02.jpg, etc. Use Arles to do the thumbs.

Make the changes to the template. And then just drop the gallery files into each directory.
