Upon closer inspection of DMOZ, AOL, NetSol, and the BBC (all of which they claim they provide), you'll find that none of those still use thumbshots.com. They use their own in-house system or have gotten rid of thumbnails altogether. I think you should check a little more closely on thumbshots.

As Josh mentioned in his opening paragraph, doing this manually is not particularly scalable. For example. I like the fact that Facebook offers a thumbnail of a link when you send it to someone; this is one example of when one of these services might come in handy. @Tyssen These services offer thumbnails on the fly.

It's the best screenshot software out there - for $35 you own it, you get as many screengrabs, including full scrolling pages, time-delays, etc. The ONLY problem with Snag-It is that they don't make it for Mac.

Why would you pay someone else to do what you can do with PrtScrn and a graphics app (or if you want more flexibility, the <a href="http://screenshot-program.com/fireshot/" rel="nofollow">FireShot</a> extension for Firefox)?
