Seems pretty straightforward, actually; I would write a script that takes as
parameters the name and desired size of a graphic, resizes it, and returns
the thumbnail ( look at ImageJPEG() ).  Then I would write a script that
iterates through the files in the directory and, for each, gets a thumbnail.

The only problem is that this is a fair bit of work; if it's called at all
frequently, you might be better to create a static version.  But that of
course does away with the 'self-updating' bit.

A possible fix would be to write master page:
check how long since the page has been updated; if necessary, create and
save an updated version of the imagelist.  Then forward the user to the
saved static version.  This would let you have the page update itself on a
delayed basis, ie hourly.
