Yeah! Im totaly agree with you Snakey . It's not hard to take the time to make a little 200 X 200 thumbnails for a post. /That help for the number of viewings./ For exemple. When im looking at the renderosity photography gallery, if i saw a post with no thumbs, most of the time im looking at the title. So if the title is not realy good, there is no chance for me to click on that link. A thumbnail is more appropriate than a title. (it's more visul)
Okay. I understand that is not everyone who have a fast internet connexion service here. But the thumbnails cant be more bigger than 15 ko. Im sure that most of the time, people are not posting a thumbnail, because they dont know how to optimize it. It's not hard. You can do it in image ready. <-- on your scene, click on the tab Optimize. You will now have 2 views. <--Normal and optimized --> Then, to reduce the size of the picture, there is a special pallet option for this (called :: OPTIMIZE::) If you didnt see it, go to <-- window <-- optimize. Then, change the Format to .jpg , play with the Quality settings and with the Amount settings. At the botom left of you scene, you will see the new size of the picture and the downlaod time for the internet connexion selected. After this, when you thum is under 15 ok, you just have to do a <-- save optimized has... . Save the picture in .jpg and your done with your thumb.
I hope that will help some people. Sorry if is too long. Blush
