 * CHANGE: The magnifing glass can now be twice as big as before (512 x 512 => 1024 x 1024)
 * CHANGE: Updated Publishers.zip
 * CHANGE: Series: Gaps will try to determine Number range of type "# - #".
+* CHANGE: The default method for resizing thumbnails was changed from FastBilinear (Bilinear) to FastAndUgly (Nearest Neighbor). For more speed but more importantly to prevent a crash that has been happening and is hard to prevent. This should at the very least reduce the incidence of that crash happening or having bad thumnails created (with a big red X). You can change back the method manually by changing the ThumbnailResampling entry in the ComicRack.ini.
 
 * BUGFIX: Fixed crash when the clipboard contains some objects while the program is idle. The check should now only happen on a right-click and not in the background. It should at least lessen the frequency of the crash, maybe remove it completely. 
 * BUGFIX: Fixed smartlist "in range" for dates, the second field wasn't taken into account.
