Because someone told them they had to have thumbnails

(Just count yourself lucky that it isn't a pic of an actual thumbnail)

Here's a prime example. Take a look: http://serenitymovie.com/nonflash_site/images.html

The photos are "considered large" for non-adult, and the thumbs are ... well .... take a look yourself.

I really hate this crap!!

My youngest daughter built adult sites when she became old enough. She really cut her teeth, so-to-speak, in adult.

I can't tell you the number of times I've heard her bellow "haven't these people ever heard of LOADING TIME?!?!?!?!?"

Non-adult photos are small...but their sites are so huge that you have to really, really want to view them to wait for them to load.

Next week: non-adult navigation...or the lack thereof....

At least you were the only one to try.

No, that didn't really answer the question.
The only actual answer I can come up with is "they're too dumb to know better."

That seems to be the correct answer ... alas.
