folder displays icons instead of thumbnails

I am using vista Home Premium. In my pictures folder I have selected the view of large icons. I should see thumbnails for the pictures. Instead I see icons for the software that opens the files when opened.

Have a look in Folder Options/ View, see if the first check box is selected to show icons instead of thumbnails.

Thank you that was it. HP support helped me for over two hours and never figured that one out.
