Not a batch process, but one of those marathon sessions in Photoshop staring at the same pixels to get something that you thought looked good.

I don't know why, but I will spend more time on getting a perfect thumbnail than anything else. It needs to be small in size, clearly defined, sharp on the lines, and smoothed out in solid areas.

Am I the only one?

Curious to hear stories and also to see the before and after images that go with.
I waste too much damn time on suplimental graphics.


Thumbs are a breeze, I have an "action" set and saved for thumbs, click F2 and thumbs are done in 1 second. F3 for landscape thumbs, and F4 for video screencap type thumbs. On the odd chance that I want to put a fancy border around thumbs or a bevel of some type I just bind an action to F5.


wow, ok I just saw your latest post right bellow the submit reply button... why do you go that far to make them pretty? Do you make your full size images look that way too?
