Hello Nick,

The AIL "IO_CreateThumbnail" is a wrapper function for the
"FreeImage_MakeThumbnail" function. It was released as of v3.0.0. See the
following page for a list of when functions were released, as well as a short
description of each:

The "FreeImage_MakeThumbnail" function is highly optimized for the image passed
in. I would definitely recommend using the "IO_CreateThumbnail" function over
creating a "home grown" version that calls several other AIL functions.

IO_CreateThumbnail might be better optimized.
