I have a little open source tag called CFX_ImageInfo at (presses STAMP
button on his keyboard) http://www.intrafoundation.com/freeware.html. It'll
let you scan a folder with a couple thousand images and report back all the
info about the images you could want (width, height, comments, colors, etc,
etc) in a SQL query.
As for _making_ the thumbnails from the original hires images... the
answer's a bit less clear. Depends on what format they're in. Some people
use a command-line CFX line CFX_ConsoleCommand or cf4.5's CFEXECUTE to force
other commerical software to do the work in batch. You could also try
CFX_gifGD and CFX_Image by Jukka Manner. Really just depends on your source
format.
