Description

Problem

Template thumbnails are too small and inconsistent between the picker and the library view.

Tasks

  • Increase preview size/resolution in the picker while keeping layouts responsive.
  • Show the same preview artwork inside the template library list.
  • Ensure previews respect dark/light themes and stay performant.

Acceptance criteria

  • Template picker shows crisp previews on all breakpoints.
  • Library entries display the matching preview artwork.
  • Any caching/optimization is documented.

Check responsive breakpoints, dark/light theme behavior, and existing caching or optimization before implementing matching artwork; done means all listed acceptance criteria are met and the optimization is documented.
