WeblinksWT
Nice work! I was a lil stumbled on how to get the thing working, so gonna put a couple comments here to help others.

I agree with jasin, pageglimpse.com is the way to go. First ya have to sign up for a dev key there which takes just a minute. Then in the standard Weblink component under 'Parameters', make sure your code reads like this under 'Thumbshot URL':
http://images.pageglimpse.com/v1/thumbnails?url=#URL#&size=large&devkey=123456789

and make sure under 'Icon' - ya choose 'weblink.png'

that was all i was confused about really.

Simple, turn it on and it works! I like it because it also helped quickly identify any old/broken links after seeing the thumbs.

Thanks for the nice component!

Mahalo!
