Is there a way to have jpg, bmp, gif, png and other graphics to be previewed before downloading?

Hi
Yes there is a way for some file types.  When you are creating or editing a download there is a section on the right hand side of the screen called Images.  This allows you to have up to 10 images associated with a download.  When you upload the picture jDownloads automatically creates a thumbnail.  This is shown on the front page view see attached pic where I have added two pictures.  If you click on either one you get a full size version.  If the Download itself is a PNG, JPG or GIF then jDownloads will automatically make a thumbnail.

For bmp images I suspect you would need a png or similar for the 'preview' thumbnail.
