    Not sure if there's a way to do so, but it would be nice to change or designate what photo is used for a thread's thumbnail.

    For example, this thread (below) has the JBA link's photo as the thread photo, as that was the first link on the list when the thread was started. However, I'd like to designate a different photo for this thread...

    https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/complete-list-of-ucas-for-the-3rd-gen-tacoma.738745/

    Is that possible?

    Attached pics in the post will take precedence over links in the post...so attach something in there and it should do the trick

    Question:

    What determines the difference between what photo ends up in the thumbnail? I've noticed sometimes it is always the first photo and sometimes it is always the latest photo.

    Could be one is attached, the other is from the gallery. I'll dig up the algorithm and see why

    If it helps, the thread "Where have you off roaded today? 3rd gen edition" has the first photo as the thumbnail while "What have you done to your 3rd gen today?" has the latest photos as the thumbnail
