Hi,
In the matching page of your theme, change 'square_thumbnail' by 'thumbnail'.

What do you mean by the matching page of my theme? Which page is the correct one if I am using the "Rhythm" theme?
Hi,
There is no way to choose default thumbnail in admin board, because it depends on themes and pages. So if you want to change it in the home page for example, you check the index.php file of your theme and when you find square_thumbnail, you change it with thumbnail.
Generally, it's a bad idea, unless you want to build your own theme, because the css is generally designed to one type of thumbnail for each page.

There really ought to be a generic setting for this somewhere. Anyone using Omeka for a document based archive is going to need regular thumbnails, not square ones. I've found the square thumbnails to be very annoying!
I've also found the square thumbnails (using a custom theme derived from Berlin) to be quite annoying since they cut off images with aspect rations other than 1:1.
Would the following be a good compromise? Generate thumbnails that maintain the original image aspect ration but fit them into a box with a 1:1 aspect ratio?
Ideally, this would be an option under Theme/Settings. As it stands, it's also not clear what thumbnails and square thumbnails mean. Both are given in but the (Berlin) theme doesn't explain which gets used where.
