Create Webpage: Defaults for thumbnails

When creating a webpage (Create > Webpage...), the default settings for thumbnails in XnView 1.82 are:

100 x 100 pixels, GIF, Interlaced. Each thumbnail image is about 6 kB.

The GIF thumbnails have dithering and look pretty ugly. With the following settings the thumbnail images are also 6 KB, but the thumbnails look much better:

100 x 100 pixels, JPG, non-progressive, 90% quality

Please note that progressive images are slightly larger than non-progressive images. Since thumbnail image are very small, anyway, non-progressive is o.k.

I suggest that these settings become the default.
