Hey to everyone.....I want to create a thumbnail link to my main pic but don't have a clue how to do it. I'm using Vue d'Esprit 4.....Can I do it within this program? Thanks for any help.

yes.... it is quite easy. - Open your render options (right click on the render option button, last one on the toolbar) - Select 'render to screen' - on the right hand of the options, check 'Other' then enter the size of your thumbnail - click 'OK' and wait until your render is done. All you have to do is save the new image with a different name (image-thumb.jpg) and you are done :)

The easiest way to do it is to import your picture into photoshop, or some other image editor, make a selection for the thumbnail with the selection tool, copy the selection, open a new file, and paste the selection into the new file.

Thanks for the help agiel and GoofyFoot. I did it in Vue and posted it already. I wasn't aware that Renderosity embedded the link for me...Duh...as I said, this is all new to me. Anyways, thanks for the help. Take care.
