## Description

Makes media library thumbnails match the WordPress thumbnail size or allows you 
to choose a new size in Settings: Media (or hard code a custom size named ‘mte_thumbnail’).

Also replaces the default “Crystal” file type icons with smoothly scaling SVG icons
that better match the WordPress 3.8+ design.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `plugin` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory or install via
    the Add New Plugin menu
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Optional: Enter a media library thumbnail size under Settings: Media
 4. Optional: Define a custom size called ‘mte_thumbnail’ in functions.php

## FAQ

  Is there an options screen where I can set a custom thumbnail size?

Yes! Just go to _Settings: Media_ and look for “Media Library Thumbnails”.

Note that this will not appear if the size has been hardcoded (see next FAQ).

  Is there a way to hardcode the custom thumbnail size?

To set a custom size, add the line below to functions.php (or a plugin) and adjust
the dimensions as needed.

    ```
    add_image_size( 'mte_thumbnail', 300, 300, true );
    ```

  I chose a custom thumbnail size. Why aren’t the thumbnails appearing at that size?

You may need to rebuild your thumbnails:

rebuild/

Or install WP_Thumb so they can be generated on the fly:
