I'd use the stout combo of Smile and Akua for the whole job, free and AS.
I'm thinking an easy way may be to create the directory of images in folders
and parse it building a list of paired list or records...
{name:"SanFrancisco", imagePath:"" , formatted image tag:"" } etc
Save these records as resources using name string "California" in file
"West" of folder "Region" for a database and start the interface with a
Smilesheet template editor/script runner which can be refined to a dialog
later.
I'd like to do play with this but lack the time at the moment.

vanilla image tags? It's cool but I can't help thinking it may be an
exercise in futility doing it vanilla and that puts me off taking the time
to understand it and adapt it to my own needs, once I use Akua for anything
it doesn't make sense to do lots of other stuff vanilla anymore as I have
lots of new sharp tools and the code is usually smaller and easier for me.
