And as thumbs were used a lot from Alexa, that company decided some time ago to stop that free service.
That's where Michael Jentsch gives the solution.
I called him in Germany yesterday and he's definitely proud of what he made and a very nice person to talk to.
The service he provides is free and opens the door for some nice development..
You use the url + web site link and you got yourself a thumbnail !
Currently Michael serves up to 350.000 requests per day, using a handy cache as well.
Naturally he's trying his best to boost up the power as he becomes more popular.
To use the service you can do it like this :

It speaks for itself that a link back from your web site is required !
Go HERE to try it out, and grab the link back, you can chose image link or text link.
