I need to create thumbnails images of web pages. There are articles about
using WebBrowser.DrawToBitmap to accomplish this, however the method is "Not
supported by this control". I haven't had any luck getting this to work. I
need to create the thumbnails without actually opening a window.

I am not really sure on how to proceed to implement this feature and it
would add a lot of value to my program. I guess what I would want to do is
instead of rendering the webpage data to my screen to redirect it to render
to memory, or to a file.

Any suggestions? I am a newbie so be gentle :)
