- Question:
- Thumbnail Image - How do I select which part of the image to use?
- Answer:
The thumbnails are automatically generated for you but, in some cases, you may wish to choose a different part of your main image to create a better one.
In this example, the top of the head is slightly cropped out so we'll make a better selection:
![](/training/profiles/images/thumb-00.jpg)
1) Log into your profile and click the 'Edit' button
2) Hover over your main image and select 'Change Image':
![](/training/profiles/images/thumb-01.jpg)
3) Click on the 'Crop thumbnail' tab:
![](/training/profiles/images/thumb-02.jpg)
听
4) Click and hold the left mouse button to draw a new selection square on the image. When you let go, you will see the Preview image update.
- You can move the selection square by holding the left-click button and dragging it.
- You can start again by clicking off the square to another part of the image. This deselects everything.

5) When finished, save you changes and the new thumbnail will be used:
![](/training/profiles/images/thumb-04.jpg)
