I am still baffled as why these thumbnails have to be produced in the first
place. A proof/contact sheet, some sort of project, what?


To put them on a web page which loads fast with links to
higher-resolution images.

I didn't mention that because I don't see why it's relevant.


it's very relevant. you're doing things the hard way.

with the proper software, it's a couple of clicks to export a complete
web page (even uploading it to your server), including thumbnails,
links to full size images and in whatever layout you want.

the computer is there to do work *for* you.
