Description EDIT - This tutorial doesn't work anymore with Eclipse, since I made this in 2011.  Sorry I'm inactive on dA and not sure how thumbnails work now.   

EDIT - This tutorial is a little outdated since it was created before the "Share buttons" existed, but it still works. I'll update it with newer images when I have time.
.
To find thumb codes now:
1. Go to deviation
2. Find the "Share buttons" to the right that have a Note, Facebook, Tumblr, & Twitter, then click the down arrow
3. Copy the code under "Thumb"

I made this mostly for the directions in :thumb174033030:  Ooo look, another thumbnail! Let me know if you have any questions!

Ahh sorry about that.  :(  I don't have an ipad and therefore can't test it out myself to see what's wrong.  But that's probably an issue that dA and/or Chrome has with compatibility.  But if you use thumb codes, they should still show up when you view them on a computer or other device.

SuperAaron98 In reply to SweetDuke [2013-07-10 15:21:22 +0000 UTC]

I think I"m cursed... I copy and paste the thumb code into my deviation description, but it still remains as a thumb code...

SweetDuke In reply to xXunovianXx [2013-06-06 02:41:47 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I haven't been on dA much recently but it seems that they've now disallowed thumbs in deviation descriptions (although you can use them elsewhere). We're all cursed! :p

you have to have premium membership to use it in a art description, non-members can only use it on journals/boxes on pages! eue

Can you not use thumbs in deviation descriptions if you are not a premium member? I can really use the open commissions one.
