Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed to display a blended set of thumbnail images. A first subset of thumbnail images may include one or more thumbnail images that correspond with images stored at a local storage location. A second subset of thumbnail images may include one or more thumbnail images that correspond with images stored at a remote storage location. A request may be received to display a first image corresponding with the first subset of thumbnail images; whereupon the first image may be displayed. A request may be received to display a second image corresponding with the second image of the second subset of thumbnail images. The second thumbnail image may be displayed while the second image is requested. The second image may then be displayed in place of the second thumbnail image.
