Default phpLB mod : Adding thumbnails (small pictures) of listed sites.

It seems to be a popular thing for bidding directory owners to want to show an image of the site listed. I guess it helps emphasise the look and brand of a listed site. It helps viewers to remember where they had seen that sight before.

We will be using the permanent thumbnails provided by MSN. These will be static, unlike some thumbnails which only show when you hover your mouse near them.

This mod will show a small image of the listed website. It will be shown on the home page and the category pages.

I can give a fair amount of support in installing this mod.
I made this mod.
Its free

When I had a bid directory, this is one of the first things I did so people could see a preview of the sites that were listed.

It's good to see someone sharing the way to do it.

Sizzler, the link leader on your bid directory is showing off to the side of your header on my screen. (1600x1200 resolution).

I love the header though!

chetan you need to consider editing or deleting the casino sites. If you want to keep them at least give them a better title
