You don't need software to do this.....
1. copy each image
2.resize each image copy to, say 100X100 pixel thumbs
3. arrange the thumbs on 1st web page to liking
4. creat 1 web page for each full size image and place each full size
image on it's page.
5. Link each thumb to each image page

geezus, you don't need Software to do every little thing in one's life.

After doing this twice for about 100 images I wrote a program to drive
my then image editor and make the pages automatically. Nothing fancy,
just a script in its pascal dialect. I must be thick because I did it
twice by hand ;-)

IMHO the OP should try it a couple of times with a few images to get a
feel for what looks good and what HTML is wanted around the IMG tags
then hand the job off to IrfanView. Computers are ment to make life
easier. If you have a fair number of similar parts to mill in batches
changing one dimension would you crank the handles on your CNC equipped
Bridgeport all week or sit down for an hour and write some G code so
you'll be finished same day?
