Hey Nucleusfermi!

Where is the difference? The size?

But she has a pretty face!

Cheers!

Oops! Under Linux I couldn't see a different thumb...

I've changed to Windows and saw what you meant!

Nevertheless I feel a bit suspicious about that. Are you sure that "magic" doesn't include also some virus or trojan?

Cheers!

Maybe just some wrong format of jpeg image,
while rendering it in full size on some coordinate there is date that causes en error (or just marks it as end of file), so viewer shows only part of image.
But when rendering thumbnail, viewer pass that part of data with error or end of file mark, because thumbnail is not containing all pixels.

IMHO

Well friends, I sent it to many of my friends and I'm posting first the best reply and then the right answer respectively, thanks a lot to devote your precious time. You all can wonder the best reply was totally wrong!! But when I tried that, it worked but with one trouble; when one would alter the background colour then the magic would be vanished. Now here is that reply form "bakuryu (India)" :-
well I am not entirely sure but this may be the effect of the "printim" command.

It is not working in Vista. For those this is working, try chaging the default background color from white to black and see if this one still works.

This command produces a GIF image with transparent color 0 and a background image mybkg.png. This means that in image.gif, the background image mybkg.png will be seen wherever the color 0 (background) appeared in the current display.

printim image.gif -b mybkg.png -t 0

And this was the right answer from DarkStar(name changed on his will, I too wonder like you)
Naa the technique use in the thmbnail is embedded thumb as Windows prefer showing EMbeded thumbs rather than usua 1 so every time it shows the embedded 1

No friend, nothing harmful is attached, I think size made you think like that, but if you search more over "embedded thumbs" then you won't be thinking the same way.
