I just grabbed your jpeg above and resized it to 200x200 and voila a nice thumbnail.

yes you can do it easily

select all, resize your art to be as small as possible (22x200 or 300x300) and on the file menu select save for web, or something similar, I don't remember the sub-menu name but it has web on the title.

select the format you want (gif, jpeg, ...) and voila.

It seems that I may have tried and failed in the past... well one of these days.
