Paul,

Thanks for the article! Do you know of a way to do this as a personal view?

I am attempting to restrict access to the thumbnail view and the only way I have found to do so is to create a personal view, use a web part page, then restrict access to the web part page.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi, nice article! But like what Christophe says – if your have very heavy images and if this should be done for an public web specially, it would be also doable with a DVWP and concat this, from a ImageLibray instead of a document library, like

I want to use a thumbnail pix in a contact list. I have stored the pix in a picture library and added a column with picture type to the list. I copy and past the URL from the pix in the picture library into the column, but it is not working. This seems so simple, but what am I doing wrong?

Right, you can’t have both.

With the method described in the post you just load the full size images. If you have 20 pictures of 500 kb, then it’s a 10 MB load to get your page.

Thanks Chris but the limitation of the picture library is the missing of the datasheet view (very useful to rename your pictures in a faster way)

Auri, previews and thumbnails can only be found in picture libraries. This is one of the benefits of using a picture library rather than a standard document library.
