  Old  Thumbnail Screenshot Automatic Taker?

Hey I released my showcase website fuvz.com. I need to get thumnail screenshots of websites submitted. I use wordpress btw. Is there an easy way to get the screenshots automatically and to set scale? I currently use print screen and then edit it.

The site itself has been re thought a little and loads more features are going to be added so it would be nice to automate the thumnail images on submitted sites.

What you need is a little mini midget to hide inside your website and take the screenshots with a camera; then all he has to do is develop them real fast and put them on your website.


But seriousally -- win or lin or susan?

That works but not the right dimensions. The dimensions I use are quite unusual. If it changed I would have to change loads of other things.

you can resize the image with GD or imagemagick (make the big one smaller)

I don't know if this is still the case, but I operate the site web-screenshots.com

With this service, you can choose wich resolution your image should have, and a plenty of other parameters.
I think you solved it by the time, but you never know.
