I hope I'm reading right... it seems you want to filter OUT files with
the extension '_4444.jpg' the above check appears to be filtering out
everything BUT these files. I think you want the following check:

    if( $file_names != "."
        &&
        $file_names !=".."
        &&
        !eregi( '_[0-9]{4}\.jpg$', $file_name) )

Cheers,
Rob.
