ImageCache + CCK
You should try ImageCache with CCK, to handle all of your thumbnails. You can create and display as many thumbnails sizes as you want for any image. (For example, You could use one Imagecache setting for the larger image and another one for the 3 smaller images).
Imagecache names can also be used within content_format(), as a formatter name.
