For us incompetents is there a Screenshooter Store, some place where we can go to buy screenshooters?

Well yes there are such tools available for sale, some free even, as I certainly didn't write the screen shot tool itself.

But if I told you what commercial tool it was that I was using it would get the old TOS edit ;)

The only thing you may need a coder for, depending on your directory software, is to create the export file of URIs that the screen shot generator reads.

Worse case you can browse the resulting screen shots in Windows Explorer as an extra large icon view but you won't see nearly as many images per page as my jam packed custom HTML view. Possibly an off the shelf image viewing package designed for reviewing masses of images would work here but I haven't looked for any for this particular job.

The screen shot tool simply takes a text file list of URIs as input and spits out a bunch of image files in a directory.

FWIW, I run a simple scheduled server task every 5 minutes that downloads the latest additions as a text file, runs the screen shot tool, then uploads those files up to the server;s thumbnail directory all day long and it was simple as heck to setup.
