I made a project and I also want it to have a thumbnail so that when people see my project the first they see is the thumbnail. I've used the code:

but it does not seem to work. Is there a more efficient method?

Hi. Different people use different ways to make thumbnails, but here are two ways in which I make thumbnails {they work}
1.

For this method, you have to place the thumbnail in the front layer manually, but the other one is automated:
2.

They work for me, so they should work for you too. Hope this helps!

This is what I do:

This is the code I use to make a project thumbnail

make sure you also add

-Create a sprite for your “thumbnail” and then add the code below (no need to add when green flag is clicked, etc..)

-click it
your sprite will show and will “go to front”
-Then click on save project.

Done

If you want me to explain, what I did was make a sprite, then this:

After that then just click that piece of code on your sprite, and then save your project and you will have a thumbnail. I hope this helped.

It is in the Events block section under

You have to change the category from loudness to timer.

Actually can your code be substituted with this code?

and

The reason I ask is because I cannot find the block

All you need is this.
Just click the stop button, click the go to front block, save your project, and you are done.
