This stencil contains thumbnail representations of common types of pages, such as search, login, and error pages for quickly designing application and site navigation layouts.

There's a point in design where it's efficient to lay out the big picture of the application or site you are designing without getting mired in the details of each page. You can accomplish this using plain old lines and boxes with descriptive labels, but odds are that you have a general idea of what you expect the page to do, e.g., it is a form, or a table listing a bunch of objects, or just a page full of text. This is where Page Thumbnails can come in handy, because you can drag the one you need off the stencil window, double-click the title to change it, and then wire it up (they are set up with 8 magnets). This makes for a more informative and visually compelling view of the proposed design.
