Hi,

Any idea how this effect is acheived or how a similar one can be:

Like when posting a website on facebook it takes a screenshot of the website and holds it in a thumbnail image to display it back to the user.

I need my users to be able to submit a link, and then to the left an image of the website appear for display.

No. The exe file needs to run on the server. So it won't work if you have a linux server.

Oh dear, Im on a linux =/
Any alternatives?

Plenty. Try google. You should now know what to search for.
