For crying out loud this request has been going on forever.  (272 replies) It is OBVIOUS it would be a great step forward for Evernote.  Why is this option so difficult to add?

Because evernote developers are not that awesome 

 

...go ahead and punish Evernote with large uploads if you want...

 

I'm not trying to punish Evernote with large uploads.  My hope would be that Evernote is using a variety of analytics.  That (possibly) an influx of large image files, or a higher percentage of accounts maxing out their upload limits, or meta data showing significant % increases, would get the attention of a decision maker.

 

Support requests and forum requests are not getting the attention of decision makers.  It's a testament to my frustrations, that I would be excited about a long shot idea like this 

 

My name is Jumoke and I approve this post! 

After checking this thread periodically for almost 4 years, hoping that Evernote would come around to addressing this design flaw, I have finally built my own work-around.

To recap in brief:

 

1. Select thumbnail image in note

2. "Copy Image" to the end of the note

3. Drag that image to desktop

4. Run Service (either from Finder, Services menu or by shortcut)

Sigh and smile as your world starts to make sense again.

Omg! So much pain and suffering   

Ultimate suicide by evernote

I used Springpad specifically for this reason and was very sad to move to Evernote when Springpad closed. Having thumbnails is very important to me.

I am a software developer and I can't understand in any programming and human logic why this much needed feature is taking so long to add!!!
