Here is a script I wrote:

http://wiki.scribus.net/index.php/Automatic_import_of_images:_Versions_not_requiring_Tkinter

Actually 2, one for A4 paper, one for US Letter. There are also 
variations on number of images per page.

This loads all of the images from a directory as written. I think it is 
simple enough that you can see how to adjust size and number of frames. 
Also, there are built-in text frames.

Scaling here is to a particular size frame. Other schemes are feasible.
