thumbnail and stack

Thumbnails are simply plain images. You can generate images (or even save the image) from the currently open window.

It depends on the framework that you are using, Windows Forms or Windows Presentation Foundation. They both support a bunch of libraries and assemblies that you can use to generate images (of any format PNG, JPEG etc.) using the graphics objects and other tools.

Only difference between them is that Windows Presentation Foundation is based on DirectX technology where as Windows Forms use GDI and other graphics objects to create your graphics and bitmaps (Bitmaps can then be saved on files in form of images). These images are then your, thumbnails.
