Most try to make their thumbnails 100x100 pixels, but may be hard to due
w/ pics that are not originally square around. I opt to *square off*
(crop) all my pics and then pull them up in a free app called All
Thumbs. This freebie seems to resize pics with decent clarity, as
opposed to using the resize/resample option in PSP. You can find the
free download here:

You can also make thumbnails out of an entire folder of files, instead
of just doing one file at a time -- nice feature.
