Thumbnail Swag

When a girl or guy looks really good in their thumbnail picture on facebook, but when you open their page and see the blown up version it is less than satisfactory.

Dustin: Aww man that girl looks hot, check out her page!
(clicks open page)
Dustin: Dang, I thought she looked really good...
Gary: Yeah man, she's got thumbnail swag.

thumbnail

Someone who looks really hot seen from a distance who when viewed in close proximity turns out to be butt ugly.

That hot guy walking up the beach turned out to be a fat grandpa, what a thumbnail!

share thumbnail space

V. 1. Refers to the deepening romantic involvement between 2 individuals when both of them start to appear together in the thumbnails of their Facebook profile pictures. While anyone can share your profile pic, it takes a special person to survive the cropping and be part of the extremely limited 130 x 110 pixels that is a thumbnail.

2. Can also refer to non-romantic relationships, i.e. BFFs, bromance, etc.

Friend 1: Are Vangie and Phil, like, together? Their Facebook relationship status still says "single".
Friend 2: Yeah, but check out their homepages - they already share thumbnail space. It's official alright!

Thumbnail cute

when a thumbnail pic tricks you into enlarging it and then you say no way. No s/he ain't all that.

Ooh. I thought I was gonna private message a hottie, but then I enlarged his pic and he was just thumbnail cute. Damn, guuuurl.

Thumbnail Shopping

Online shopping with no intention of buying anything. Just admiring the product in the thumbnail, maybe looking at a few color options, and then scrolling by. Often done by college students who can't afford new stuff but can afford to ignore their professor for a little while.

Erin always sits in the back of her lectures so she can go thumbnail shopping when she gets bored with organic chemistry.
