Nick,

I never understand how it was done, however now Bop Hollness write it, I get
it.
Get your page in the axwebbrowser
Take that part of screen in a bmp
Set it to a thumbnail using the tumbnail method from gdi
And that is all.

Probably not more than 20 lines of code.

I think I should try this one ones.

However I think that this is more a nice simple chalenge for our Multimedia
Student in my idea
