Here is example of scaleable configuration:

location /thumb- {  
location ~ ^/thumb-(.\*).jpg$ {  
fastcgi\_pass …  
fastcgi\_param SCRIPT\_FILENAME /path/to/thumb.php;  
fastcgi\_param QUERY\_STRING id=$1;  
}  
}

location /image- {  
location ~ ^/image-(.\*).jpg$ {  
fastcgi\_pass …  
fastcgi\_param SCRIPT\_FILENAME /path/to/image.php;  
fastcgi\_param QUERY\_STRING id=$1;  
}

```
location ~ ^/image-(.*)\.gif$ {
    fastcgi_pass ...
    fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /path/to/image.php;
    fastcgi_param QUERY_STRING id=$1&gif;
}

```

}

etc.
