I figure that I can create 12 gifs, 1/12, 2/12, etc in the font I like that is not web freindly, and have swap.js swap them out as needed. The question is, how to create a system that allows the user the see the images using php?
I don't know what swap.js is, you got that from somewhere?

What I would do, personally, is:
in brewery.php:
- find out how many pictures there are in the gallery (/imgs/brewery/)
- load a list of them in Javascript
- display < current_id / total_number > in the lower left corner.
- attach eventhandlers to the left and right brackets (< >)
Those (javascript) eventhandlers will replace the image with the previous and next images respectively.

I don't really see a neat way of doing the < 1/12 >, 2/12, 3/12 etc with image files though, either it's a lot of hassle doing it dynamically via PHP (create the image files on-the-fly) or force every gallery to have at least, and at most 12 images.

With my setup it doesn't do image pre-loading, meaning the browser will not download the image until it is needed, causing a delay between the click and the showing of the image. (Perhaps swap.js is supposed to pre-load images?)
I know image pre-loading is possible, I just haven't looked into it.
