I need this too. My Microsoft Surface Go is perfect for Evernote. Evernote 10 runs well on it (and I much prefer it to the old version and the web version), but the 128GB SSD is running out of space and is not replaceable with a larger one. It has an SDXC card slot and I used to have the old Evernote database installed. I am about to reset Windows and reinstall only essential programs, but this will only buy me a little time!

I agree too. The Windows version is is a bit laggy on my laptop but it's so much cleaner and appears to be speeding up. Oddly on my underpowered Microsoft Surface Go it performs well. I have a lot of notes (38,956) but relatively simple notebook and tagging systems. There are a few things I miss or have not found yet - not having note tallies ironically, keyboard shortcuts for items in the insert menu - but overall I'm enjoying using evernote whereas in the past it has been a necessary pain due to regular freezes in Windows that new versions of the app never resolved. The look and feel is very elegant in my humble opinion, and although there have been teething problems with syncing I think it works much better now it is continuous. Maybe this is selfish because other people have been disrupted by the loss of features and I have not, but my fervent hope is that evernote keeps it simple, and keeps working on performance. More features will be good if they appeal to lots of users, or they appeal to power users but are applied in such a way as they don't clutter/complicate the interface for the rest of us.

Thanks gazumped. Those scenarious would solve the problem but inconvenience me in other ways! But I appreciate you taking the time to think about it. Thanks for the link jefito. I see now, the problem is that all my images are the same size so it's either picking randomly or using some other rule (not sure why I get no image in snippets in the Web version though). I could resize the other images to make sure my preferred image is the one that appears as the thumbnail, but that too is a faff. I think I'll just live with it as it is. From the other topic I see it's been suggested before that users be able to select which image appears as a thumbnail and I think that would be good. I can imagine hovering over the thumbnail and seeing alternatives to click on.

One of the ways I use Evernote is to store photographs (JPEGs) with notes on how I've processed them and a copies of the picture as processed by the camera (JPEG) and the original file (RAW format) . So, typically there will be three images in the post, interspersed with text: Edited JPEG Camera JPEG RAW file (this is not displayed in the note, as you need specialist software to interpret RAW files, so it is just a file attachment) I like to have the edited photo first, so you can see it straight away and then scroll down to see my notes. I also share some of these notes in a shared notebook with fellow hobbyists, so these comments also relate to the Web version of Evernote. In Windows. Evernote seems to choose the last JPEG you add to a note as the thumbnail and this is invariably the camera JPEG, which doesn't look as nice. In Web. Evernote doesn't display a thumbnail in the snippet at all, although it does if there are only JPEGs in the note. I think it wants to make a thumbnail of the last image added to the note but it can't because it's a RAW file. I would prefer Evernote in all cases to use the first image in the note. Can anyone think of any way of achieving this?
