RE: [PHP] image code
I wrote thumbnailing script that did exactly what you said below, but to
eliminate the needless regeneration of existing thumbnails I just did a
check to see if the thumbnail already exists:
if(!file_exists(/path/to/thumbnail.jpg)){
//Create the thumbnail here
}
If the thumbnail already exists, the script skips over it, but if it doesn't
it creates it as needed.

Seems pretty straightforward, actually; I would write a script
that takes as
parameters the name and desired size of a graphic, resizes it, and returns
the thumbnail ( look at ImageJPEG() ). Then I would write a script that
iterates through the files in the directory and, for each, gets a
thumbnail.
The only problem is that this is a fair bit of work; if it's called at all
frequently, you might be better to create a static version. But that of
course does away with the 'self-updating' bit.
A possible fix would be to write master page:
check how long since the page has been updated; if necessary, create and
save an updated version of the imagelist. Then forward the user to the
saved static version. This would let you have the page update itself on a
delayed basis, ie hourly.
