A thumbnail is roughly the size of a thumb. One can stretch this
a bit maybe. But not so that all meaning is lost.
If you were right, any pic, even say a 800x700 one that linked to
an even larger one (a not so rare technique used to give folk
bigger without unnecessarily using up bandwidth from the start)
would be a thumbnail.
This is sometimes called a reductio ad absurdum and will be
further explained to you by Officer "Bud' White before he gives
you his usual special treatment that is very far from the Roman
mind. What you will get is especially Californian.
