What's the best way to check if an image file exists?  I want to avoid the
default browser "image not found" icon and replace with my own.  Currently I
use "Test Path Name", but this seems really slow.  The nuts and bolts of my
code looks something like this:

        <% If(Test Path Name("/Pictures/"+[Item]Name+"_thumb.jpg")>0) %>
                <img src="/Pictures/"<% Write([Item]Name) %>+"_thumb.jpg">
        <% Else %>
                <img src="/Pictures/Not_Found.jpg" >
        <% End IF %>

Which works fine for a few images, but now I have it in a loop for around
100 items, and the delay is several seconds to test all the path names.  If
I remove this code and just try to load the thumbnail without checking
first, the page is quick as a whip, but I get the default browser "image not
found" for the images that don't exist.

Thanks,
Jason
