gThumb will make the thumbnails and the pages if you want to publish you
photos.  gThumb is a photo management app that can pull photo directly
from your camera or from a file system.  It has catalog and publishing
features.

You can customize the presentation of the Web pages with CSS or create a
whole new theme;

The GNOME desktop has many thumbnailers.  Mydesktop thumbnails images,
videos, and pdfs.  I have these installed

/usr/bin/gnome-theme-thumbnailer
/usr/bin/gnome-thumbnail-dia
/usr/bin/gnome-thumbnail-font
/usr/bin/gnome-thumbnail-gimp
/usr/bin/gnome-thumbnail-magick
/usr/bin/gnome-thumbnail-pdf
/usr/bin/gnome-thumbnail-postscript
/usr/bin/gst-thumbnail
/usr/bin/totem-video-thumbnailer

gnome-thumbnail-magick will thumbnail most images.

$ gnome-thumbnail-magick src.jpg thumb.jpg [pixel-width]
pixel-width will default to 128.
