Thumbnail icons for image file attachments

orschiro
Hi there,

PDF attachments have this useful pdf thumbnail icon which help to identify a file as PDF especially for longer file names where the file extension sometimes is hidden.

Something similar is missing for image file attachments. These attachments are only displayed through an empty blank page icon.

Is it possible to add meaningful thumbnail icons to image file attachments?

Regards

Robert

    There's this patch which, when accepted, will add icons for other types, including this one for image file attachments.

    The patch proposal looks great. But it is waiting for approval for 4 months now. Not quite sure whether it will be implemented at all.

    If Dan didn't think the patch would be worthwhile, he'd have said so right from the start. Four month really isn't that long in terms of development cycles, have some patience.

    Alright, thanks Adam.
