    This is what I found:

         #include <unistd.h>

         int
         symlink(const char *name1, const char *name2);

    Now I am guessing
    I have to put a file in to each directory or do I have to put a file in
    to the "images" directory and it will link all files and sub-directorys?

    What do i call that file?
    index.php maybe?

    What do I enter in to this file?
    This maybe:

    #include <unistd.h>
    int
    symlink(const char *, const char /immages/*);

    I think I am totaly lost now.
