That's a great idea actually. I think this could be fairly easy to  
create and it makes it really easy to create contact sheets. I think  
scripting Nautilus isn't too difficult, I might give it a go myself  
once I find myself in a normal working environment again. In the  
meantime I've found this seemingly excellent resource:

http://applications.linux.com/print.pl?sid=06/05/03/153241

I've been on an unplanned "surprise" vacation the last three days and  
my network access is severely limited, which you might have noticed.  
On top of that I got a really, really bad case of sunburn and  
dehydration which gives me headaches and makes me feel terrible. I'll  
be going home tomorrow morning and I hope that with another night's  
rest I'm able to resume normal operation.


Hope to get working with you guys again, soon.

Sincerely,

Frank

Well, it's Troy's trick really (he showed me), but I don't think he'll
mind if I share it :P

I am not on Linux now, but it is imagemagick - specifically montage
See http://www.imagemagick.org/script/montage.php

I used something like

montage -tile 5 -frame 5 -geometry 270 -montitor -label %f
infiles*.png outfile.png

Which does a montage with 5 columns (-tile), a frame of 5 pixels
around each image(-frame). Each image is resized to 270xwhatever.
-monitor means it shows us progress and -label %f gives the image name
as the file name

Hope that helps

There are about 5 different bgs and several layouts for each.

I tried to just let it all flow :P

Broadly speaking I think they get a _lot_ better towards the end of
the series - sorry if you're on 56k, you may never get to see them :P

I will wiki it when the wiki comes back to life - I can put a bunch of
