ThumbType thumbtype

Thumbnail type. Describes how a thumbnail for this image is to be generated.

The following thumbnail types are supported:

Crop (1)
Crop the image to the thumbnail aspect ratio. Unless the aspect ratio of the thumbnail rectangle and the image are exactly the same, a part of the image ise cropped to ensure that the entire thumbnail rectangle is filled with image data. The crop rectangle is positioned in the image using attribute::ThumbHorizAlign and attribute::ThumbVertAlign.
Fit (2)
Fit the entire image into the thumbnail rectangle. The image is positioned within the thumbnail rectangle using attribute::ThumbHorizAlign and attribute::ThumbVertAlign, and any extra space is filled with attribute::ThumbBkgColor.
Texture (3)
Crop the image based on resolution. The image is scaled by ratio of catalog::ThumbRes to catalog::Resolution. If the resulting image is larger than the thumbnail, it is cropped to fit, if the scaled image is smaller than the thumbnail, the remaining area is filled with attribute::ThumbBkgColor. attribute::ThumbHorizAlign and attribute::ThumbVertAlign are used to determine the position of the crop rectangle within a larger image or position of a smaller image within the thumbnail.

Clients request image thumbnails with req=tmb requests.
