It was found here: http://emelfm2.net/wiki/OtherDownLoadsLibrary for Thumbnails Plugin
This archive (110kB) provides a version of the GIMP thumbnails library that (unlike the original) works with multiple users and/or multiple threads, and doesn't crash when re-used. You will need to run the included autogen.sh script before the usual build sequence.
This shared library is badged as 'libthumbs' and may be installed in parallel with the standard libgimpthumb.
Use of libthumbs is optional (via a Make parameter) for the thumbnails plugin. If not used, relevant code is built into the plugin, instead. However, for versions < 0.7.5, the built-in code includes static data for a GObject-class, so you really must use the library if: multiple instances of emelFM2 are ever to be open simultaneously, and more than one of those instances has an open thumbs dialog when the instance is terminated and the opened instances are not terminated in LIFO order. Probably not a big risk.

I look forward to your 64-bit, since Guy Dog 5.0.1 has become my favorite Puppy. Perhaps because it's the fastest 32-bit on my system. But more likely it's because I ended up spending so much time figuring out how to get it to easily do what previously had been routine. Affection is directly proportionate to time invested.
As it now stands, there's only a couple of things I would like to add. I indicated in a recent post how I solved the problem of running XP portables from wbar, but they failed to appear on the menu even though .desktop files in usr/share/applications exist. Where exactly is the file which generates the menu? Maybe the routine which is supposed to generate the menu from .desktop files breaks down? While I don't know enough to try to fix such routine, I do know enough to edit text files. I have to do that all the time in order to add PupSnap or mtpaintsnapshot to jwm's tray.
Which reminds me, I'd also like to know the name and location of the file which generates the tray in GuyDog so that I could add a screenshot app to it. A "show desktop" icon on the tray would also be of value, especially as wbar is frequently hidden behind an open app. But for that I'd also need to know "show desktop's" executable. Does Guy Dog have one?
Lastly, I've figured out how to restart-x and restart-wm via the terminal. Both would be handy to have on the menu,
Regarding GuyDog 64, please keep in mind that --as far as I know-- there isn't a 64-bit version of wine or LibreOffice. Additionally, many of us have favorite 32-bit apps for which there are no 64-bit versions or adequate substitutes. So while an "all 64-bit" distro would be ideal, unless and until there are quality 64-bit apps to fill every niche, you may want to consider --as, as far as I know, every 64-bit distro including FatDog and LightHouse64 has-- developing some method by which 32-bit apps can be utilized. Transitional measures are important until the rest of the world catches up. At which time they can be discarded.
