Enter the thumbnail width and height in the thumbnail boxes. Select the background colour by clicking on the Background Colour box.

In the sample below the background colour is yellow and the thumbnail generator has filled in an area above and below the image with the background colour.

If a watermark is required then enter the text in the watermark text box and select the font and colour, enter the size in pixels in the size box.

Clicking on the Single Image 'Load' button will allow you to see a sample of the settings before committing to processing a folders images or allow you to process images one at a time. Click on the 'Save Bitmap' or 'Save Jpeg' buttons to save this single thumbnail image.
