    78   <li>Photo elements must have an associated thumbnail (see section below 
    79   about thumbnails)</li> 
    80  
    81   <li>Photo elements can have a high quality file associated. As for 
    82   wedding.jpg in the example above. No prefix on the high quality picture.</li> 
    83  
    8459  <li>No photo elements (video, sounds, file texts, whatever you want...) are represented by default by an icon corresponding to the filename 
    8560  extension. Optionally, you can associate a thumbnail and a representative 
     
    8863  <li><em>Warning</em>: the name of directories and files must contain only letters, figures, "-", "_" or ".". No blank space, nor accentuated characters.</li>

    101   <li>Each photo must have its thumbnail.</li> 
    102  
    103   <li>Thumbnails are stored in the "thumbnail" sub-directory of the album 
    104   directory. The thumbnail has the same filename as the corresponding photo, with configuration parameter <code>prefix_thumbnail</code> as prefix (see <span class="filename">include/config.inc.php</span>).</li> 
    105  
    106   <li>Thumbnails files have not necessary the same extension as the associated image (eg a ".jpg" image may have a ".GIF" extension).</li> 
    107  
    108   <li>It is recommended to use an external module for thumbnails creation.</li> 
    109  
    110   <li>The usage of the thumbnails creation tool integrated in Piwigo is not advisable, because the resulting quality might be disappointing and this will lie heavily on the server ressources (and that could be a serious problem on a shared server). 
    111  
    112   <li>If you choose to use the webserver to generate thumbnails, you must allow write access on all albums directories.</li>
