Thumbnail Graphics

The speed of loading a page of a Web site is reduced if high-resolution graphics are used.
High-resolution graphics are required to improve the effectiveness of the site and cannot
be avoided. Hence, to avoid this issue, thumbnails are used.
A thumbnail is a small image, or a part of a larger image. Clicking the thumbnail image
will link to the larger original image, which can be viewed and downloaded. Even a hover
effect can be given through CSS and JavaScript.

Code Snippet 10 demonstrates an HTML code for inclusion of a thumbnail image.

Code Snippet 10:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang=”en”>
