      When enabled, Geeqie attempts to store cached thumbnails closer to the source image. This way multiple users can benefit from a single cache, thereby reducing wasted disk space. The resulting location is the source image's folder, in a sub folder with the name <span class="emphasis emphasis-bold">.thumbnails</span>. When the image source folder cannot be written, Geeqie falls back to saving the thumbnail in the user's home folder.
