I would download all (3x4) 12 urls, at the start of the page, using
SELECT.... LIMIT (($pagenumber-1) * 12), 12
because you want as few SELECTS as possible.

Then make it something like:
loop 4 times { (for the four rows)
        loop 3 times { (display each picture)
                show a picture
        }
}
