Hi JW,
To save space, would it be practical to store the movie thumbnail images in a compressed (eg. JPG) format in the database and in memory?
File and memory space savings would be considerable (75% savings gain is not unreasonable). It's also likely to result in file load (and during re-sort) performance improvements due to the significant file size reduction.

Dan
