What does 'Thumbnail Coming Soon' mean?

Sometimes you may see an thumbshot that says 'Thumbnail Coming Soon' on it. This means that you are the first person to request that particular website snapshot and that a webpage thumbnail of the URL will be created as soon as possible.

Can your service capture and show website screenshots in real-time?

If the thumbnail exists in our database already, we will deliver it instantly. However, if it doesn't exist, there is no feasible way to instantly capture it. It takes time to render the web page, capture screen, and deliver the thumbshots. The fact is that there are too many variables that exist, such as slow-loading websites, malicious code, etc. Some similar startup services claim to 'instantly capture' and avoid showing a 'queued' message, but those services can only work while they are small. At any real volume, they cannot keep up with demand and quality of service goes down quickly.
