[FONT="Arial Black"]Latest Features:[/FONT]
- Automatic Thumbnails from hundreds of sites!: Now with automatic thumbnails for hundreds of sites! Video thumbnails as well as image thumbnails are seemlessly set without the user having to do anything at all.
- Supports Almost Every Site: If the page has images, we'll find them

- Support for previewing your new thumbnails: When a thumbnail is selected it will automatically be previewed in the new preview window in Pligg 1.1.4
- Facebook Open Graph protocol: When someone posts a link on facebook to your site, Auto Thumb will give facebook the thumbnail and description for the link.
[FONT="Arial Black"]Features:[/FONT]
- Setting of Thumbnail from story URL: Auto Thumb will find all the images on a page and display them in a user friendly manner to the user.
All the user has to do from this point on is to click a thumbnail that they feel represents their story and the thumbnail will be automatically uploaded to your site and set as the story thumbnail. - Filter out small images: Small website images are automatically filtered out from selection so the user sees useful images. They can override this to show all images on a site if they dont see the one they want.
- Editing of thumbnails: If at any point the user wants to change the image, simply edit the story and you will be able to edit the thumbnail as easily as you set it.
- Upload your own: The user can also set the thumbnail for a story by uploading a picture of their own.
- Add thumbnail vial URL: The user can use a link from a picture on the web as the thumbnail.
- Video Plus Integration: If a story url is in from a supported video website, the story thumbnail will automatically be set to the video for the user.
- Playing Videos Inline: As with the Video Plus module, videos will be able to be played inline of your website inside a fancybox window when clicked
- Crop thumbnail images: All images can be cropped and resized to the same dimensions to fit in nicely to your template design.
- Link thumbnails: Thumbnails can link to a variety of places, the original link url, the story url or open the full image in a fancybox
- RSS Importer Module support: Auto thumb module can automatically set a thumbnail for feeds imported through the rss importer module.

- Filter out small images: You can set the minimum size an image needs to be when showing images for thumbnail selection to the user. This reduces the number of images shown to the user so that they dont get swamped with lots of small images. The user can always select to see all available images.
- Thumbnail size and quality: Changing the thumbnail size will re-generate all thumbnails in the correct size.
- Placement in Template: You can customise where in the template the thumbnail is shown based on various template module hooks.
- Thumbnail Link: You can set whether the thumbnail should link to the story page or to show the full image in a fancybox javascript window.
- Allowed image types: This sets the allowed file types when uploading your own thumbnail.
- Maximum image file size in KB: This again is for for when uploading an image.
