Here's a neat little service that makes creating and displaying website thumbnails really easy and a better user experience for visitors too. If you need to show thumbnails of websites in your app or on your own website, you'll want to check thum.io out.

I made a GIF of a website screenshot generator getting a screenshot. Does that count as meta? πŸ€”

@nivo0o0 Hah! I wish you had done a brand new one that the thumbnail itself animated inside of your animation :) You can use URL parameters to make new requests unique.

@nivo0o0 looks great! what software did you use to record the gif?

Wow, this is exactly what I needed for my next project!

Been using Thumio for a couple of weeks. It's faster and superior to other screenshot services because it outputs a GIF image. This makes it generally faster and also lets you show custom loaders while the image is being loaded. Great job!

Awesome little tool. Been using a Mac app called Paparazzi for a while, this will probably replace it 😎

Wish could choose length, meaning entire website or just part of it

@androidlove At the moment, you can get up to 1200 pixels of the website. Use /crop/ to crop that down. We don't have full-page captures yet but we are considering it.

@zmokhtar @androidlove Full-pasge captures would be amazing πŸ‘πŸ»!

Wow. This is awesome. I was actually looking for this few weeks ago and it needed an API to call. I was ok with that option. With thum.io, i don't need an API to call. is that right? If yes, i will give it a try for my next project. When i say, no api to call. I meant explicity API call.

@sridhar_kondoji That's right. You can embed our url's directly on your site. Our loader is built into the returned image so all you need is an image tag!

@zmokhtar How does the authentication work?
Zeki Mokhtarzada
@sridhar_kondoji When you create an account, you can manage independent keys. You can secure requests by referer, raw-key, or md5 hash.

why not flat pricing or free option?

Hi There, Seems great, price is fine, would love to see some options as fullpage/above the fold, personalized resolution (ie for responsive screenshots). A question about your, it says : "2$ for 10000 screenshots". So if I display a screen shot on a page, and the page is called 1000 times, does it count as one screenshot or 1000 ? I assume there is a cache, and saw we can specifiy it duration, if we don't what is its duration ?

I found one problem. If the only difference is only in hashtag, then you use cache although it should be a different image. See: https://www.sniptracker.com/Dash...
Mitja Perko
Nice. How do you solve the problem of when the page finished loading?

I love this idea :) I'll give it a try!
