Ok When you have vegas open place you marker on the timeline where you want to capture the thumbnail then look at you preview window and at the top of the preview window is a little diskette symbol click on that and it will save your snapshot to file. there you go hope I was able to explain that clearly enough

What Daryl said, but make sure you set the quality to Best-Full before you click the diskette icon.

additionally, you want to make sure your project settings are set to progressive before capturing the still so you have a full field picture.

Thank you very much!

I think I need to do a ‘drive-wipe’ (re-format), so I might be off-line for a while.

See you back then.
