How do you make a Thumbnail?
Make a new sprite, make the image whatever you like. Make it so it hides when the green flag is clicked, and show it using the show block or clicking the eyeball under the stage. Save the project with it showing and it should be good.
do not

Alternatively, you could use this script: 1) Make the cover (it's called thumbnail btw).

go to x: (0) y: (0)
go to front
set [Ghost v] effect to (100)
when gf clicked
hide
Then, before saving the project, show the sprite manually.

This has the advantage of allowing you to click the stop sign without having the thumbnail cover the project every time.
