    For my article "The Spiral TrackBar", I uploaded a thumbnail image (100x67 pixels) for the article using the Browse button under the Article Thumbnail section. The image is currently listed with the Images as Thumbnail.jpg, but it is not being displayed as the thumbnail. The auto-generated "Thumbnail.png" is still being displayed. How do I tell the Article Submission Wizard which image to use for a thumbnail? Thanks, Graham

      I've also had problems setting the thumbnail. What seems to work is to do it as the absolute last thing before submitting the article. Under Article Thumbnail on the right, click on Browse... and navigate to the file (which you also uploaded previously). Select the thumbnail and then submit the article. Hope this works for you.

        Thanks for the suggestion. Actually, adding the icon was all I did in that particular editing session. But this morning, I noticed that the icon was correctly set. Not sure if it was a cache issue.
