[QUOTE="mac57, post: 221338, member: 17052"] I do a lot of work with image files, and Finder does a very nice and very speedy job of thumbnailing them for me. What worries me is that I cannot find out where Finder keeps those thumbnails. Clearly it does keep them, since they seem to be persistent from session to session. Somewhere on my Mac is a repository of these thumbnails that is just getting bigger and bigger and bigger. I would like to find out where it is so that I can flush it from time to time. I have looked in what I consider to be the obvious place (the Caches subdir of my personal Library folder) but I haven't found anything there that would appear to be the set of thumbnails I am looking for. Has anyone else had this issue? Did you ever find out where Finder keeps these things? Thanks. [/QUOTE]
