Another way to get the information is to go to ${folder}/thumb
where ${folder} is the path to the actual images.
In that folder is the actual thumbnail files and a file called
.sizecache. .sizecache contains one line for each thumbnail
in the format:
${realfilename} ${thumbfilename} ${width} ${height}
So it might be easier to just grab ${folder}/thumb/.sizecache
and parse that.
An example is this:
http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Ben/Test/thumb/
.sizecache:
1train19.jpg 1train19.jpg_thumb.jpg 128 96
block_control_sheme.gif block_control_sheme.gif_thumb.jpg 124 128
