this is an excellent tutorial and probably the very best way to get from
a stack of images to a bunch of web pages.  i have been learning how to
script web pages with gimp for several years now and the biggest message
i have to share is to "do as i say and not as i do" (borrowed from my
drivers ed teacher).

that said, i have a simple gallery script, written in python and ready
to go i would like to share here.  it will make simple gallery html for
a directory filled with xcfs, you need only to show it your images and
show it where to put the gallery.  the script might be a good starting
point for someone to learn scripting with and i tried to note some of
the places the script can be improved at.
