Btw: has adding thumbnail image support to the ZIM file format been considered? This would be very handy for a ZIM file selector in a tablet or phone UI. ZIM is able to store anything, also pictures. Most of the ZIM files are with thumbnails.I think Douglas wanted to know if it was possible to add a picture to the meta-data of the ZIM itself ; like the name & author, so that a ZIM collection library can be viewed with pictures only (on a phone). Douglas, the answer is yes ; Almost all (if not all) ZIM produced by Kiwix includes a thumbnail.
Yes, this is the question I had in mind, and I see now it in the ZIM file format specification of the metadata: 'A favicon (48x48) is also mandatory and should be located at /-/favicon '
Thanks, Douglas
