Thumbnails aren´t on your thumbs. Not really. They´re small drawings that help you test your ideas on paper for print, TV or for the web. You can use any medium to draw with, and it doesn´t have to have photographic accuracy. Use a selection of these thumbnails to develop your other, more accurate layouts. Photographers find thumbnails to be extremely useful in setting up shots for client advertising.

Think of thumbnails as being a "visual brainstorming session" and get those creative juices moving!
