Better yet, what if the thumbnail were kept in the screens directory. Bridges that have a corresponding .thm could display that, otherwise, it could, otherwise, just generate one after the bridge is loaded for the first time. That would keep the .pxb format the same, and only make a change to the way p* handles things.

Could we have little thumbnail images of our bridges displayed next to the level names in the load screens? That would make it much easier to go back to earlier efforts for ideas/reminders and to show off our creations to friends!

I like the thumbnail idea, too... I think the best way to implement this would be to include ready-made thumbs in the pfx files, not sure whether the game can create them on the fly when browsing the bridges folder... that would increase the pxb file size though (really nice small files right now 
), and be a major change...
I think we should use my thread for small things which can be fixed fast, so this new thread is OK IMO.

That's a good idea, you should've posted it to Gray's thread though.
