Comment on deviantTHUMBS:TINY v7 by rotane
Oh, that's not what i meant! If you look at this collection of mine (rotane.deviantart.com/favourit…) you see some pictures in the background. They are all embedded pictures inside the journal itself. I was wondering if something similar is going on with lit thumbs. 
Not with the vertical lit tags (which are still visible in some views), but what you've shown me (I've since figured out how to access that option from the editing screen) gave me the idea of adding my Tradewinds (and other logos) to the background as a "preview image" which puts it at the top of the piece in the old text view, or puts it underneath the text (just like in the journals you linked to) in the "new" view, so at least it looks like I can take back my at-a-glance distinctiveness, without resorting to styles or scripting. And, by its very nature, makes it visible to anyone else viewing the site without any styles.
Like so: shadesmaclean.deviantart.com/g…
Thanks for the feedback, Rotane, it looks like you've helped me solve this problem.

Excellent! I've learned something myself. Cheers
No problem.
It seems, though, that through further experimentation, I've encountered a problem with the new view that I can't account for, and I was hoping you might have some insight into it. I've taken the initiative, adding preview images to sections of my galleries, but some of them don't seem to take. They show the preview image in the new view, but not in the old view:

Given how long it can take to get any useful answers out of da's own staff (assuming you get any useful answers at all) these days, I was wondering if you had any thoughts on the matter.

It seems like these are all lit pieces with mature content. Perhaps that's why they're hiding a preview image? Weird.
That would appear to be the case. One would think it would at least be visible to those who have the filter turned off, though... 
Thanks again for the second opinion. I'm not sure how long it would've taken me to figure that one out, given how few of my pieces really rate a "Mature" flag.

Must be a glitch in the Matrix. 
No problem! You know, i have a code-snippet that shows me all mature pieces with a red outline.
