# Designating Single Thumbnail Image

 * Hi — I’m using FG Free & FooBox w/Single Thumbnail gallery. Default is that first
   image is the thumbnail. I’d like to set a different image from the gallery as
   the thumbnail on my Portfolio page, so I used FG “Featured Image”… this works,
   but it throws off the display order. Example: Let’s say I have 5 images, and 
   I’ve put them in the order I want FooBox to show them as 1-2-3-4-5. But instead
   of image #1 as thumbnail, maybe I want image #4 to show as the “teaser” on the
   Portfolio page. However, when I set #4 as “Featured Image”, FooBox moves it to
   position #1 no matter what I select under FG “Gallery Sorting”. The resulting
   display order is 4-1-2-3-5. Is it possible to set thumbnail as image #4, but 
   keep order 1-2-3-4-5?
 * Thanks!

 * Hi [@architectjca](https://wordpress.org/support/users/architectjca/)
 * At the moment it’s my understanding that setting the featured image and having
   it moved to position #1 is the only available option.
 * We’ve had others request that they can pick any image they want as the feature
   image and I’ll pass your request onto the development team as well.
 * [@bradvin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bradvin/) – would you please review
   and confirm I’m correct that only image #1 can be used as the feature image at
   this stage?
 * Thanks.
