Automatically create thumbnail #253

Description

@stephenwf

When a user add a painting annotation with a single image, we should have enough information to automatically generate a thumbnail.

We could either:

  • Use a side-effect, similar to the resizing canvas, that will pick a thumbnail automatically
  • Add some UI to select a thumbnail as a second step

The first option would remove the options for customising the thumbnail, but would be out-of-mind for the user, with thumbnails appearing automatically. We can also have some simple detection for DLCS hosted to look for a /thumbs/ endpoint too.

The second option would be more of a rich experience, allowing the user to:

  • Choose from the available sizes in a dropdown
  • Specify a custom size if supported (?)
  • Could look for DLCS /thumbs/ and prompt to add that (with choice of size too).

The second option could also be an editor to enhance the first option.
