+1 for the option to select a primary/featured/thumbnail image. I'm sure much thought and research went into creating your algorithm, EverNote, and I appreciate that. It sounds like a wonderful way to select a default image when no other information about what's truly important to the user is present. But for a truly excellent user experience, allowing us to override the algorithm for individual notes by selecting the primary/featured/thumbnail image is crucial. An etic approach made sense before Evernote had a userbase; now that you have a substantial one, an emic approach is better suited. And the natives have spoken: being able to choose this image is important and will improve the experience. I began using Evernote (quite recently) not only because I wanted a way to create visual notes (by adding images, drawings, etc), but because I wanted a way to visually scan my notes within notebooks to more easily find what I'm looking for and get a quick visual snapshot of the ideas/notes I have within notebooks. This puts great significance on the thumbnail image; often, however, the Evernote algorithm doesn't select the image I feel is most representative, making this tool less powerful and my experience more frustrating. Please consider adding an optional override now that you have this use user data to work with. Edited to add: If you are concerned about additional database resources being needed to make this change and the associated expense, why not make this a premium feature?
