In the Layouts editor #

1. The gallery blocks (Gallery, Slider, Thumb gallery, Grid gallery, Sushi bar, Logos) have Thumbnail size alias (default small).

With templates #

1. Templates choose the alias with {attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.data_map.image image_class=i480}; the media theme uses aliases such as i480 (its image files end in _i480.jpg).
2. New aliases are defined in image.ini of your extension.

Which to choose #

Reuse the theme's aliases; add one only for a new size.
