Featured Gallery Thumbs/Images

I spend a lot of time squaring and cropping all my photo thumbs and select one for the feature gallery
thumb. This is the thumb I'd prefer to use as the feature gallery image on the folder. But there doesn't
seem to be a way to select it. The current image is not acceptable with its auto sizing.

Feature request:
On the folders I use the grid format so I'd prefer to use my choice of the featured squared cropped thumb.

    I was just looking for the same thing. My folders show a variety of horizontal and vertical featured images from the Legacy view. I'd like to have them all horizontal or all vertical at least under each folder.

    A related question... Did your legacy featured thumbs for cats/subcats/galleries migrate properly? In other words, are they the same images you had originally selected, and are they still squared & cropped?

    You can select any image to represent any folder, sub-folder or gallery, in the gallery settings of the organiser. It's pretty cool. I presume that's what you are asking...?

    You click on the little image icon of the Feature Image option under the folder or gallery settings...

    You can only select a whole image and not thumbs is the problem. My thumbs were squared and
    cropped and picked for the feature gallery image on the legacy site.

    I'd like to have this feature back, too.
    All of my photos have customized square crops. I wan't these to appear on a folder page.
