I looked at this at one point and had something working. You want to resize to an image that's < 128x128 and stick the thumbnail under ~/.thumbnails/normal. For a file that's (eg, for the fedora user) ~/Photos/me.png, the thumbnail would be ~/.thumbnails/normal/$(echo "file:///home/fedora/Photos/me.png" | md5sum) If you come up with a nice script to do this, I'd be glad to include it in livecd-tools as an example for others :-) Jeremy -- Fedora-livecd-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-livecd-list
