_thumbs

Asks Picnik to generate thumbnails for the exported image.

Default Value

"no"

Remarks

To turn on thumbnail generation, set the _thumbs parameter to "yes". Picnik will include the following parameters with the image when it redirects back to your website:

  • _thumb320: the URL to a thumbnail which is no larger than 320x320.
  • _thumb100: the URL to a thumbnail which is no larger than 100x100.
  • _thumb75: the URL to a thumbnail which is no larger than 75x75 and which is cropped to a square.

Thumbnails are always JPEG files.

Thumbnails are sent as URLs -- even if you've asked Picnik to POST the rendered image data to your server. The thumbnail URLs are sent as query parameters if you've set _export_method to GET; in the POST case they are sent as components of the POST from Picnik's servers.

The URLs that you receive have a short lifetime, and if you'd like to make use of them you must copy them to your local server.
