How important is it that all thumbnails be 200x200 px exactly? Or was this a stupid idea to begin with, and x200 would be fine, preserving aspect ratio?

Next up is, what is the best thumbnail we should replace all thumbnails with?

Couple more options...

Simple Thumb

Polaroid photo thumb

[img:width=200&height=200]{e_FILE}public/1202842925_1_FT355_saber_thumb.png[/img]

If I recall correctly, I switched all the thumbs on the site with the first one seen in this post...

I'm betting it's because of the transparent background. hehe It looks better on the forums because of that.

If everyone can live with the simple thumbs, they work out best for me. Small size, fast to generate, and good visibility.

Code to make them:
for i in `cat files`; do echo $i; convert $i -background white -resize 200x200 -size 200x200 xc:white +swap -compose over -gravity Center -composite `echo $i | trim 4`_thumb.jpg; done

^the framed ones look nice but if the simple thumbs make things easier then go with it, some compromise is necessary sometimes.
