What a wonderful start you've made to your Gallery with this handsome egret.

Very well done Sirpotato, I hope we may be able to see more of your pictures.

BTW The reason the thumbnail didn't display properly was due to the file size. At over 5000 px the Gallery software couldn't create a thumbnail.

If it happens to you again, it's easy to correct. Just make a copy of the picture at somewhere between 1000px and 2000px on the longest side and save it where it is easy to find. Then in the Gallery, open the image and you will see a 3 Dot menu above the Comments. Click on them and select "Change Thumbnail".

On the screen that opens, go to Custom Thumbnail and browse for your re-sized image. Double click on it and the name of the file should now show on your screen. Don't forget to Save!

This doesn't affect the picture in the Gallery, it just allows people to see a thumbnail of it.

Hope this helps, but if you need any more assistance, please don't be afraid to ask.
