 * I’ve tried searching this as best I could, and it seems a rather simple question:
   When I upload a photo in the WP admin tool and select full-size, is a thumbnail
   automatically created as well?
 * If not, do I need a plug-in to do this?
 * Thanks!

 * Yes – assuming that the full size image is large than the thumbnail dimensions
   set in Admin/Settings/Media.
