Small preview images of level in the menu

How do I set them, I found a folder called "preview" in the "levelshots" folder, however when I create my own in my PK3 file, it doesn't seem to load and show, do I need to input this is a shader or arena file?

This is the level w/o, I'm trying this localy and I also deleted the workshop level from my own computer so there would be no conflict.

No help yet - I agree with you - I included a custom pk3 (not your map, which is amazing !) with scripts/arena file and levelshots/preview, but no preview appears. The arena file has been read because the long name of the map is shown correctly. Also a "/fdir levelshots/*" in console shows that the levelshot and preview have been recognised ?? Also, adding extra maps like arenagate from workshop shows same problem for these maps - which is weird, since there's a preview for arenagate in "baseq3\pak00.pk3\levelshots\preview\" !
And finally, if you try callvoting the map, the callvote menu shows the preview ?#$!!

Strange thing is that I have BLood Run Intel, which for some reason has no preview image and that's an "official" level as far as I know?

Does not work unfortunately, I tried both preview and _preview :(

Anyway if you open standard maps (those that have preview jpg enabled and working), their own worldspawn does not have any reference to the preview jpg.

I think its more about, If it doesnt have a picture then it isnt a quakelive bought and paid for map, its just a good or ♥♥♥♥ map from the community, maybe they still have a budget for buying maps and yours could be added as a quakelive map!?!? :)

It's not that important, it's just a nagging feeling that something is not 100% complete =)

There are a couple of other points I'd like to bring up - what irc channel was that ?
