Reddit thumbnails

Post by pecelot »

Whenever I post an ESOC link on Reddit, the site just randomly picks a thumbnail from images inside of the thread mentioned. Sometimes it's a user's avatar (usually not the OP's one!), once even a random image in spoilers from the second page of a topic was chosen! How this can be dealt with? Is there a way to manually pick a post's thumbnail?
(Sorry if it's a wrong subforum to post this in, I don't think there's one more suitable, though).

This is in the works as far as I'm aware. Should be fixed soon®

As a thread submitter, I believe there's nothing you can do. Reddit doesn't allow you to manually pick nor edit the thumbnail. Perhaps there could be something done to improve this on the site's end, as Bram has mentioned.

It does allow you to pick a thumbnail. As I said, this is being worked on or will be worked on eventually.

We are saying the same thing. I said "as a submitter"; that would be a regular reddit user like me or pezet posting a thread on reddit. As in, not ESOC webmaster.
