I am using version 3.97. I think it came with "IrfanView Thumbnails", a
separate application. It's the thumbnails program that generates the
thumbnails along with the HTML. It's fairly configurable too. You can
do a lot of customization.
So it boils down to a two-step process. First, batch process my
original shots using IrfanView to get the size I want. In that step I
can also add a little sharpening, gamma correction, etc. And then start
up IrfanView Thumbnails to generate the thumbs and the HTML. For me the
last steps are to create and upload a zipfile to my webserver and unzip
it there.
At any rate, I can process an afternoon's shots and get them posted in
15 to 20 minutes as long as I don't have to do any more elaborate
photoshop work.

I didn't know Irfan did ALL that. Which version are you running, and what
are the steps required to generate the HTML? I don't see that in the
version I have (3.97, which I think is the latest).

IrfanView will batch-process files (including adding sharpening, gamma
correction, resizing, and so on) in one step, and in a second step, will
generate thumbnails and all the HTML needed for a photo album. All one
has to do is upload it all to the server, and you're done.
