If you don't know what I'm talking about, read this:
http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=GameIconTutorial

From a developer's point of view:
People would have to spend lots and lots of ROBUX creating new thumbnails for places, and rectangles are usually best for displaying content in your game, since computer screens are rectangular, too.

From a veteran user's point of view:
ROBLOX was originally a game made for the computer, not any mobile devices, so square thumbnails for mobile devices should not influence the PC world. Also, thumbnails have been rectangular for a long time. Why change it now? It was fine rectangular.

Lol, WAUT?:
No new labels allowed, what? What was bad about that?

No misleading thumbanils, what? How would this get rid of that?

Game logos, what? Stop being influenced by overrated loleris games.

"Game icon could become a possible 'App Icon'" Making money off of our games?

"...square ratio, this helps in condensing multiple observable product horizontally and vertically on a single page as their overall count can increase in number versus a rectangle aspect ratio, also this is a much friendlier mobile ratio used by large mobile hardware providers..." ROBLOX was originally meant for PC's, and almost all computers and mobile devices have a rectangular screen. The rectangle thumbnail fit the screen better.

And they expect us to have photoshop and stuff...

@Aage

Would you rather have one long post or 10 separate small posts?

Probably based off of overrated loleris, I think he was the first one to introduce the game logo.

BUMP.

Also, another reason that this update would be bad is that the games of people who don't go on ROBLOX anymore, but their game is still popular, their games will have ruined thumbnails forever.

Bump.
I don't have enough money to pay 20 ROBUX for all of my game thumbnails and have them removed.

Guys, if you have more reasons or any thoughts on the matter, please reply. If more people know why this update is bad, maybe ROBLOX will not release it.

(Like my siggie update?)

Maybe you don't understand, because YOU DON'T EVEN BUILD GAMES!!! YOU JUST COMPILE FREE MODELS!!!

@super

I joined 3 years ago, I learned to script and build 2 years ago.
I don't need free models.
I can make things on my own, and free models just look lame, by the way.

I honestly dislike the update and I hope ROBLOX revises this idea because a thumbnail is the main attraction for people and you want one to catch your eye for success, ALTHOUGH.... It mostly matters about the gameplay, once you enter the game you will forget about the thumbnail, right? Although I still hope ROBLOX revises their decision, but a something for you t ponder about, it isn't the worst update but again I hope they don't add it.

@super. If you look at the "thumbnail" for your first game, you can clearly see on the top that it says the creator of this game thanks ___ for using the Billboard GUI free model.

And I don't use them, I never bothered to delete them from 2012. (Or the new ones which are like map creation kits and funny things such as dead dogicorns)
