so i want to change the thumbnail beside my sketchbook into something else than the first pic,but i can't change the order of attachments without having to insert them directly into the post...how to do it? (because it's quite alot of images)

Is there a reason you don't want to insert them directly into the post? Just because there are so many?
If you click on the drop-down of the paperclip button, there is an option to "Insert All."

the first inserted image will shop up as thumbnail,correct?
edit: ok,didn't work. nevermind. guess i'll just have to stick with my current thumbnail.

If it were me, I would reserve the first post of my thread for the image I wanted as my thumbnail. Then I would post the other images in the second post.

I suppose if you really wanted to change it, you could click the "Manage Attachments" button and remove the images, then reattach them in the order you wanted. Though I guess that would be a lot of work.

yeah,plus doing this every time you grow tired of your thumbnail...well.
people should become interested because of the name,or at the very least the sketches anyway.
i'll have to remember it for next time though.

I think, if you insert all the images into the thread but leave just one alone in the attachment manager that is your thumbnail. So you can replace that when you want as well.

Does this mean you updated carni?
