We are making an animation and having trouble putting the thumpnail. Do we make it in Flash or Photoshop? How does it work?

There are a number of ways to go about making a thumbnail.

One is to make an entirely new drawing in Photoshop or Flash, then export the image as a .jpeg to use as the thumbnail. You can crop the image from there if so desire as well.

Another way to go about it is to take a screenshot of an interesting frame from within the animation itself and save it as a different image file. You can then upload that thumbnail and choose how you want it to show up.

If you want to avoid potential spoilers and have extra time/patience, you can create a new image or use a screenshot of a complete frame. It is as easy as that. :)
