Custom Thumbnails

Custom Thumbnails

You can now add custom thumbnails to ANY share, as a free or subscribing user. Previously, you could only add custom thumbs to monetized shares from within that interface. Now, from the main share create/edit window, you can make a custom thumbnail for any share. Normally, shares generate their own pixelated thumbnail for share links and previews. However, you can override that thumbnail with your own custom panel, cover art, splash screen or logo to signify the content contained inside. This is extremely useful for monetized shares to inform users what they are purchasing access to, or for multi-file shares where one thumbnail may not properly reflect or summarize the contents. 

To add a custom thumbnail, just select the picture icon on the create screen, choose or reset/delete a thumbnail image from your photos app, and save. Now, that share will go out with the thumbnail as the "cover image" when shared with friends and fans.  As with all controls, you can change the thumbnail at any time, even after the share has left your device.
