.htaccess mod rewrite folder to subdomain

Question

So I have the main photos folder and I want to make it subdomain style so there is /images/ and /images/thumbs. What I'm trying to accomplish is 'converting'

/images/ -> images.domain.com

and

/images/thumbs -> thumbs.domain.com

Thank you for your help.

RewriteRule ^/?images/thumbs/(.*)$ http://thumbs.domain.com/$1 RewriteRule ^/?images/(.*)$ http://images.domain.com/$1 [L]

This rules rewrite URLs like: http://domain.com/images/lol.png to http://images.domain.com/lol.png. And: http://domain.com/images/thumbs/lol.png to http://thumbs.domain.com/lol.png. With no external redirect.

Thanks have you tested it? I cant seem to access images.domain.com I also have enabled Options -Indexes does it affect this? Does it work on a typical shared server (im using HG). Thanks for your time.
