Very nice tip Keshav.
Some other options can be used by url like :
&format=PNG or &format=JPEG(default)
&cache=NO or &cache=YES(default) can be usefull to have a refreshed thumb at each call, but much more longer to load
Next version will coming out tomorow (more stable and more options)
New thumbizy version is coming out today !
More stable, more options and stay very simple to use !
Coming back at 6pm (gmt)

Thumbizy is (or was) great, but it’s been down for several weeks now. Sent a few messages to the admin but haven’t heard anything back. ![]()

I am using http://www.sitethumbshot.com/. it is easy to use and had no major issues. It is easy to deploy and it is free. I suggest give it a try.





While using this service i suddenly found that it uses a php file to take screenshots and an http command to execute it.
The command being :http://www.thumbizy.com/go_2.php?url=http://google.com&size=360
Well, with this point in mind, you can create a bookmark in firefox to use it as a keyword, for taking super quick screenshots!
Just bookmark this piece of url by opening the bookmarks organizer:http://www.thumbizy.com/go_2.php?url=%s&size=360
While saving it give it a name and also give it any keyword like ss. Save it.
Now suppose you are on google.com and you want to take a screenshot of it. Just point your mouse to the address bar. Add ss and a space infront of the url and hit enter. The url should look like this “ss http://google.com”
Keywords can be really useful sometimes.
