Looks like I jumped the gun on posting this question. A quick run of "apt-cache search thumb" returned some likely-looking candidates:
   cthumb
   curator
   galrey
   igal
   webmagick
   album

Anyone have any suggestions as to which program will be most suitable?

Thanks!

Kent

I just tried "curator". Way too easy. I'm gonna have to go back to using Windows to put some challenge into my life . . . .

Hi Kent,
I have just got a Canon G2 :) I think I noticed one called bins that generates static html (I assume it generates thumbnails - I haven't tried it yet)

<checks debian.org>

ah, yes it does - but it's only in testing/unstable, sounds damn useful though:

Package: bins 1.1.16-1

Generate static HTML photo albums using XML and EXIF tags.

BINS generates a complete static gallery (images and HTML) with thumbnails and image lists, using XML files to hold information about each image. Includes bins_edit and bins-edit-gui tools for adding information to the XML files. Interprets EXIF and JFIF tags (and Canon extensions) in the jpeg directly. Gallery appearance customizable through HTML templates; gallery can be generated in different languages.

Based on SWIGS (Structured Web Image Gallery System).

hth,
Barney
