@BIink

@Madmazel


  1. the primary size of a "good" screenshot for a thumbnail is 1920x1080 pixels in size
  2. suggest and upload your screenshot of any movie or game you want, we have been focusing on older items first and especially things that don't have a thumbnail
  3. I'm usually kicking around in the evenings so you can get a pretty fast response to this thread if you post a question or suggestion

heck yeah bud, now you would just need to suggest the thumbnail that you would want to see paired with this item.

That part is on you, YOU have to suggest the thumbnail and provide a link to the screenshot that you uploaded to YOUR dump file

Thanks! It's best to capture thumbnails in fullscreen mode when possible, these thumbnails are below the minimum size we go for. This game in particular is a bit tricky to get decent thumbnails for but I made some at a larger size while in fullscreen mode.

Thank you! I try to keep the old thumbs intact for as much as I'm able.


I'm going to borrow tox's more structured method from here on out and keep track of which days I've covered. The next batch contains new thumbnails for all the uploads to the Movies portal on January 1st and 2nd 2005.

New thumbs for uploads to the Movies portal between 1-2 and 1-4. This is not all of them, there's still about 20 entries left.


I think I'm going to prioritize Featured entries before I do the rest from this point on.

I don't know what to do with this submission


if I zoom in I can see that there is still something there but the size of it alone is micro

I can click the play button and then the green flash button and there is an animation that is playing, but its 30 pixels by 30 pixels

got 2 things that I could use some assistance on


are the dimensions correct on this submission? it feels very very flat, I still got the thumbnail but I'm wondering if the dimensions should be in the range of a native 1080 pixel height and not in the 380 pixel height as it is now

-----

and can this one be increased in size for a thumbnail?

This one is kinda strange because it does seem to crop more than it should, however if it set the dimensions to standard I can tell it's meant to be cropping what is there. I went with a middleground, doubling the size and making it a little taller. I made a less exciting thumbnail for it, too.

https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/56376


I upped this to 600x600 and made a thumbnail.

the thumbnail picture i took even with ruffle original quality is 50% with a good quality(this doesn't means HD quality)

i guess i have to redraw it.


because the thumbnail size is 1920x1080 but the animation frame's size doesn't combine with "1920x1080 size"


I like to make animations :)

Updated! BTW, in Ruffle you can right click and set the Flash to fullscreen, which helps a ton with grabbing hi-res thumbnails.
