Just wondering how the 'selection process' goes for pictures for signature thumbnail's on a SIG's page?

I like to put before and after pics in my showroom entries...The first time I got selected for a SIG the ugliest 'before' pic was nominated.
I figured this was because it was the first picture loaded in my showroom. So in future I have made sure the nicest picture was always loaded first, this seems to not be the case as the SIG thumbnail has still found the one 'ugly before' pic to load on the SIG homepage.

Is there an art to this or should I just stop loading up before pics and make sure all the ones in my showroom are all nice and purty?

I swear if I had a Holiday Buggy 2010 in my showrooms the sig would find it

Cheers

The original first pic in your showroom is the one the sig uses, when you add the 'car' to the sig.
If you then change the first pic, the SIG still uses the original first pic - the SIG thumbnails are created at the time of upload and permanent for that entry.
The only way around it is disassociate the model from the SIG, delete it from your showroom and add a new entry with the first photo as what you want the SIG to show.

Cheers Andy I figured as much, I was wrong about it searching for the ugliest pic the second time an I had infact loaded that one first (it was so long ago) and that's why it came up. Thanks to you I am now SURE not to screw it up next time
