Wordpress: News Icon cannot appear in thumbnail size

After coming back from my long leave, I found all my icon news thumbnails not working as usual, only default icon for news appear for each of them...

Today I found the reason why this happen... its happen because the icon picture size that upload in media library smaller than image size in setting image. It suppose 170 x 56 px.... and the thumbnail function will reduce the image to thumnail size 162 x 56px...

Now all news icon appear again!... hehehe. :)
