  Old  Best thumbshots like website/program?

What website do you think is best for generating thumbnails for you? I have checked out a few. Ideally the website would:

Have customizeable sizes and dimensions
No watermarks on images

Ones ive tried:
thumbshots.org
websnapr.com
artviper.com

I really like photobucket it has alot of resizing techniques with it, and alot of album options to upload and direct links as well.

Haven't found a website to do all that, but I use WebsiteScreenShot and my own little web wrapper to generate thumbnails for my sites.

If you're looking for Web APIs, a new one is http://thmbnl.com/ but my old favourite that I've been using for ages and ages is http://webthumb.bluga.net/home

Artviper seems to be working and it fits all the criteria so far.

The webshot thing looks really really neat. I might have to try that sometime. As for thumbshot programs, I find the best way is just to make the thumbshot yourself.

I found this site that does a good enough job thumbalizr.com for my applications

But I havent seen this "Have customizeable sizes and dimensions" so may not work for you

Of course, an alternative is to just use alt-printscreen and Microsoft Paint.
