I'm always down to help out, seems simple enough to do during a mindless binge on monitor 2 :p

Strawberry's Gym by CrustClock. Current thumbnail is low-resolution


I recreated the thumbnail in 720p.

Mr. Artist's Plan, also low-res

Might as well finish the job and update the rest of Mr Artist's thumbnails

The two other flashes have existing thumbnails, but are too small. I also can't add more detail because they were shot on a potato

Okay, I shall do these!


And done! Thanks for your work!

Response to Thumbnail Crew 2021-03-20 01:54:21


Also adding these fine classics which do have thumbnails, but not in a high enough quality.


Miku Cloctsune: Ninjin. Prioritised this one because it has a video version.

floundermanCD2010 Not only is the current thumbnail too small, it's also just black space. I have a substitute that can be used instead.

Here's A Few Tips For New Thumbnails.

1: Get rid of the watermark because a: Bandicam didn't exist in 2000, b: it's not even converted to mp4 in any way, even with Bandicam, and c: it's more unprofessional than the humor within the flash itself.

2: Upload the screenshot to the file dump and share the link on this thread.

Like I have done here:

Much better, though I recommend full-screening the flash before you capture your thumbnail. Again, I also recommend uploading the thumbnail to the Dump and post the link.

Response to Thumbnail Crew 2021-03-30 19:36:49


I have updated both logos for those, made one for Street Life myself, and used Frogs for the other.


One thing you can do though, is if you are in fullscreen, and you see a good scene that looks like it would make a good icon, you can use that too rather than just using the title credits.

Response to Thumbnail Crew 2021-03-30 20:44:03 (edited 2021-03-30 20:44:46)


I figured I'd do my part by looking at some of the items in the music videos category. Let's see how far back we can go in one post. I note in posting that all the icons show in the post, but not when I scrolled through.


Some which have thumbs but which don't reflect the content/are just blobs:


Something to replace the grey square which exists


Title Card


Has a thumb technically but doesn't reflect the content well


Ditto


New stuff!


Proposed icon


Proposal


Zoop


This Nightmare Fuel


Piggy


IDK, art?


Truffle Cookie


I have to say this one is just "slideshow of other people's art" which could meet removal criteria. But since this thread is images, this is the least stock photoish.


C'est tout until at least May 2018 in that category. I hope this was helpful. In case something borks in formatting, the icons I proposed are saved with the content ID of what they go to.

//

Relatedly unrelated @TomFulp: https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/728202

Above shows in the listings with no icon, but appears to be a dead link. Would have been circa March 2019.

Thanks! I had done a few but was gonna get to the rest later... We've been doing more rate-limiting on NG and one thing that can get you throttled is downloading too many Dump items too quickly.

I had noticed that, I have run into it a handful of times, but for these icon dump files, does the rate-limiting trigger if I right-click and save the image? Or is it only if you go through the download link?

That's a good question, right clicking and saving is probably fine because you're just grabbing it out of your cache. It would probably take more activity to hit a limiter there.

Anonymous Frog Make An New Thumbnail For Shaide's Taking A Sh**!


I could not find this 'Shaide's Taking a Sh**!' movie you're talking about, but I fix that Canadian Crucifixion thumbnail.

It's best not to have lots of text in the thumbnail.

Can you pop that image onto the dumping ground and drop a link to it? I can update the thumbnail but having the higher resolution file would be lovely


Thanks, updated!

The last of the single digits are complete!


Souped Up Civic. This thumbnail is the largest I've ever done, with a monstrously large 4096 x 2304!

https://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/4f83bef1fac353669724ff88c652bbe1


Chinese Restaurant. Also pretty large at 2000 x 1264

Both of these were stitched together from multiple screenshots using MS Paint.
