Some cautions: at the moment the script is written strictly for files ending in small letters - .jpg, .tif, .gif, .png; .pdf used to work, at least for the first page of the PDF. Haven't yet been able to get it working for .svg files (different image process). The last I checked, it worked only in 1.2.2cvs, not 1.3.x, due to problems with the Scripter (specifically, sizing images to frame size not working).
scribalbum.py sets up four staggered images on a US Letter page (to leave space for notes), scribalbuma4.py puts eight on A4. In both, the filename is a caption, directory name is at the top of the page. You need to run from within Scribus. AFAIK, there isn't any limit to the number of images in a directory (I've ended up with 50+ pages) -- Scribus looks a little sick processing a big job, but it's never died on me.
