I've been asked if it is possible to display the thumbnail of a download rather than the less useful filetype/symbol image. Virtually all of our files are PDF so knowing that doesn't add any real information for users. It would be better for them to see an uploaded image (of the first page of the PDF).

I tried simply replacing the {file_pic} placeholder with {thumbnail} but that didn't work. Is what I want to do possible?

More into: when I replaced {file_pic} with {thumbnail} I get image1 (attached). Originally, I saw image 2.

Hi,
Sorrt but his is not really feasible at this time.  It is a good idea as an option.

Please add to Suggestions
