Feature detail

As far as I can tell, thumbnails are currently created for all images, which are then used for showing the image in the app and in the browser.

Would it be possible to create a THUMB_LOCATION just like the UPLOAD_LOCATION where all thumbnails are stored?

This would have the advantage that you can store thumbnails on the SSD, for example, and you can access the images while the Hdd remains spun down.
