Source for thumbnails base image?

[VS]

Hello,
can I get source of the thumbnails image(s)? These that come with CPG are heavily compressed - would do, but original is certainly better, if available.

I mean this:

Eh ****, I can't edit my post? I accidentally hit post instead of preview - the message lacks "please", which I haven't decided yet where to put. Never mind, here it is, only a bit late.

Sorry, we don't have it. The dev who introduced the generic thumbnails has retired some time ago. We don't have the uncompressed images.

Thanks for reply! Am I allowed to modify these files? I know they are GPLed, but anyway, it is also question of whether you want it or not.

[Joachim Müller]

Yes, you're allowed to do so, we even encourage you to post your results.

That's what I was planning to do anyway, if I ever get to try ...
