Custom thumbnails?

There is a very very slim chance for this one. It would add a lot of complexity to the code that probably wouldn't get used by many users.

You could do it by hand, you know. It might not be convenient, but you could do it. Once the thumbnail is created, you can simply create a new thumbnail and overwrite the old one. Of course doing this messes with the filemanager's size information. So if you wanted to be correct about that, you would update the filemanager table too, but that wouldn't be required to make it work.

I second the need for this. Not sure why it would add much complexity, you already do it for videos.

That is a good point. I am going to put this off for now, though. It will be in the queue for sometime after I fix the HEAD form API changes. But even then, it might only make it into 4.7 since they have much nicer form stuff. But I haven't made any final decisions yet, so don't freak out or anything. :) Before I finalize anything, I think I will open this up again and we can use this as a place for discussion about how to implement the feature.

i too would like to see the possibility of square thumbs. nothing too elaborate, crop on center would do.

Now that we use the image module for images, this is really no longer Acidfree territory. I was never a big fan of this idea anyway. And nobody stepped up to the plate. So, to the dumpster it goes. But if somebody finds an elegant way of fixing the problem, submit a patch.
