A graphic or image purposely made smaller in size in order to display multiple images on the same Web page at the same time. A popular practice on the Web because it gives the user the chance to choose the image they would like to see a larger version of. This is usually done by clicking your mouse on it. The practice of using thumbnails is also used to display "samples" of images that are "free" thus, when a user click on it, they either need to enter in a password in order to get at it, or they are instructed on how to provide payment for the higher resolution larger version, before they can actually see it.
