131 Palm has not published their database format for the thumbnails. So,
132 pilot-foto puts a generic penguin thumbnail for every image uploaded.
133 Fotos can be accessed by a named list on the handheld as well as the
134 thumbnails. This has been tried on a couple of handhelds. It is possi‐
135 ble that a foreign palm or different model will not like it.
136
137
138 To get a thumbnail image you can copy the jpegs to the memory card. If
139 you copy them back to the handheld they will have a new thumbnail that
140 matches the jpeg.

149 If a jpeg is installed with the same name as one already on the palm
150 you will have 2 thumbnails pointing to the same jpeg. The new jpeg will
151 overwrite the old jpeg.
152
153
154 If the thumbnail fails to install then the jpeg should be removed. It
155 is not.

158 We have an online bug tracker. Using this is the only way to ensure
159 that your bugs are recorded and that we can track them until they are
160 resolved or closed. Reporting bugs via email, while easy, is not very
161 useful in terms of accountability. Please point your browser to
162 http://bugs.pilot-link.org: http://bugs.pilot-link.org and report your
163 bugs and issues there.
