Okay... I just realized that the weekend is pretty much over, and  
that time was almost up...

So, I just spent five minutes whipping up a slightly altered version  
of gift-add-collection.pre-pl (which is the "original" from which the  
gift-add-collection.pl script is generated)

This new version contains code to handle a new "--no-thumbnails"  
commandline option.
The --help text is modified to mention this option as well.
If you use this option, no thumbnail images will be created, and no  
thumbnail directory will be created either.
The thumbnail-url-postfix attribute in the url2fts.xml file will only  
contain the image name, and not an url to a thumbnail image. I  
couldn't decide on which was better: dropping the attribute, setting  
it to "" or just using the image name. I decided on the image name as  
I guess it will break less things. Feel free to change that decision  
yourself.

I have only tested this version twice, and it seems to work. But I  
may have missed something, so please watch out.

I'll attach the full gift-add-collection.pre-pl, gzipped, and not a  
patch. Let me know if your spam-filters/virus detectors, etc, removes  
it, or if you actually do need a patch-file.

If you think my changes are acceptable, please go ahead and commit it  
to the CVS repository.
If not, let me know what is wrong, and I'll try to fix it.

I hope I can contribute something more interesting some day soon.  
Spare time is rare though.


/Jonas
