	I'm relatively new here but I think each picture should get it's proper thumbnail when the original is to large to embed. Mediawiki is using some applications in the background maybe not available here. But there are some workarounds. And since "onlinehome.us" is well secured I still do even not know what OS is running in the background. But whatever the OS is, it should be solvable.--[[User:Dgbrt\|Dgbrt]] ([[User talk:Dgbrt\|talk]]) 18:13, 8 June 2013 (UTC)		I'm relatively new here but I think each picture should get it's proper thumbnail when the original is to large to embed.
