How do I update the thumbnails?

[Regs]

Is there a way to update the thumbnails produced for a link entry?

Thanks,

Regs.

I assume that you are using the thumbshots.org setting for thumbnails? If so, there's not really a way to update those.

Thanks Brian - I take it these are stored 'dynamically'?

How often are thumbshots updated? [ TOP]

Thumbshots can be updated as often as needed at our discretion. Our policy is to deliver a What You See Is What You Get experience. For the Open Thumbshots Project, we try to update once a month on "active" sites. Updating too frequently will unnecessarily waste resources that can be put to use for other sites. Most sites hardly change or the change is too subtle for the eye to detect (eg. the change of a date on a page is not visible to the eye). Our robot automatically determines whether a particular site should be updated more or less frequently depending on the activity of that site. There are several knobs we can tweak. With time and experience, the robot will adjust to optimally match a site's activity. Please be patient or send a friendly e-mail to us if you think a site is not getting updated often enough and we'll see what the robot thinks.
