Thumbnails and Icons

-How do you prevent DS from making icons every time you render?
-To my understanding, the system can read thumbnail images larger than 100x100 pixels. How do you go about this, just manually render an image larger than that and then rename it?

IIRC, DS generates icons for renders saved to a folder defined in the Render Library tab
I use the Render Library Manager, in the Render Library option menu, to set a folder without images as the only location listed. I then close the render Library and the next time I render I use the menu to the left of the file location to tell it to save to a folder rather than a library, and point it to the folder I really want my images in.
