After installing Thumbalizr_tags, update your Django configurations:

	INSTALLED_APPS = [
		...
		'thumbalizr_django'
	]


	# Thumbalizr settings
	THUMBALIZR_SETTINGS = {
		'API_KEY': 'MY_KEY',
		'SECRET': 'MY_SECRET',
		'WIDTH': '',
	}

Change MY_KEY to your Embed API key, and MY_SECRET with your Thumbalizr secret. You can add default values for the API call: WIDTH, BWIDTH, BHEIGHT, etc. If not set, Thumbalizr will use the default values for your profile.

Then, in your templates, use the thumbalizr tag to generate the image URL. For example, to take a screenshot of https://www.thumbalizr.com/ with a thumbnail width of 800 pixels:

	{% load thumbalizr_tags %}
	<img src="{{ 'https://www.thumbalizr.com/'|thumbalizr:800 }}"/>
