    I created a custom field to upload images.

    The thumbnails are automatically created by EE.

    The field name for the main image is {glove_series_main_image}.

    What tag do I use to pull the thumbnail?

    Hi LarryMiller,

    The auto-generated thumbnails are for internal use in the control panel. I’d recommend Image Sizer on the front end to get exactly the size thumbnails you’d like.

    You must be joking.

    The thumbnail is displayed on the Edit Entry screen (with a URL), so there must be a variable (tag) assigned to this field.

    I am not aware of such a tag, no. I, too, would recommend using the Image Sizer plugin. It’s free and certainly gets the job done.
