Some hats in the catalog appear to be zoomed in more

Some of the hats are zoomed in to the center as shown in this clip:

I am not sure it this is intentional or a something accidental.

Whoever makes the thumbnails for hats is doing a bad job.
You’d think they’d catch on with ThumbnailCameras after doing it hundreds of times.

They were fine before, this has only just happened recently.

Yeah, I believe all of this happened last night.

Ahh, ok.

Pretty sure that has to do with the size of the Block that the mesh is attached too - if the block is smaller than the mesh, you’ll get that glitch.

It’s a fairly common occurrence when hats are manually updated. Ugly? Yes. Serious? Not really.

Reported it to tone/totbl on IRC earlier today, it was a glitch and they are aware.

Think I figured out what happened.

All(?) pre-2010 gears, heads, and hats have had their thumbnails re-rendered with better anti-aliasing (this is also applying to new items), but over the years the thumbnail renderer has been changed and now is positioned differently.
So almost all of those items have strange thumbnails now because unlike most items today, a lot of those old items don’t have ThumbnailCameras, so the thumbnail renderer has it’s way with them.
