I am running a simple webcam for my own amusement on my mac mini at home. For various reasons, I do not want to put a custom PHP install on that machine. The PHP install on Tiger is sufficient enough to use Filebrowser, but it doesn't support the GD library.
Since I am just using a bash script in cron to copy my webcam images to my Filebrowser directory, it was easy enough for me to write a simple python script that could be used to generate the thumbs for me.
I am providing a link to my python script in case anyone would like to use it to get ideas for their own scripts.

Right now the script works on JPG files, since that is all that I use, but it could easily be edited for whatever you want to use it for, so long as the Python Image Library(PIL) supports it.
I am not fronting this as "good" code, but it is a good start to anyone that is in a similar situation.
