Dear Tony,
With regard to your enquiry into thumbnail image file sizes.
The size we use for our image database is 120 by 120 pixels. That is 120
width for landscape format, or 120 high with portrait format.
Our 'on line' database in the Web site uses 100 x 100.
I hope this is of help
Glynn Wilton,
Photographic Curator.
