  make_tn TITLE DIRECTORY [DIRECTORY [DIRECTORY]]
  make_tn 'My Title' ~/pics ~/pics2

=head1 DESCRIPTION

make_tn is used to create thumbnail images and a web page to index them. The general steps:

  - Creates an index.html file in the directory you're currently in, with
    the title of TITLE.  
  - Looks through all of the files in the specified DIRECTORY/s to see 
    if they're images.  If no directories are specified, assumes that you
    want to look in the current directory.
  - Creates thumbnails for those files for which it's necessary 
    ('*-tn.jpg' is the general nomenclature).
  - Writes the rest of the page out using on a table with the number of 
    COLUMNS set in the configuration.

The middle two steps depend on the ImageMagick package.


REQUIREMENTS

Requires Perl 5 (and the included Pod::Text module), and the ImageMagick package to identify and convert image sizes.
