Ok, knowing your skill level is always a plus on how we approach helping you. So we'll take it in smaller steps here. First question: is the directory name right? If you run "dir ..\images\dir\name" if Windows or "ls ../images/dir/name" if Linux/unix, do you see the files you want to work with? If not, you need to convert to using the right directory names.

There are ways to do this dynamically as something relative to where your script lives, but let's not cover too much ground in a single node here, so it may just be easier to put in the full path name such as "C:/images/dir/name" on Windows or "/home/kmarshall/images/dir/name" on Linux/unix. We can cover doing this in other ways at another time.

Ok, now next step. Just put the following in your program:

@files = glob '/home/kmarshall/images/dir/name/*'; use Data::Dumper; print Dumper(\@files);
and tell us what it says. Of course, put in the right path name that applies to where your images are.

Once we have gotten that far, it will be much easier to continue on from there.
