The images that are generated by django-filer (or easy_thumbnails?) are so little that it is hard for me to recognize the preview images. How can I increase the preview / thumbnail size in the admin overview?

Unfortunately it is not possible to configure the size of the thumbnail displayed in the admin as of the current release (1.2.7 released 2017-03-02).
As a temporary workaround you could override the https://github.com/divio/django-filer/blob/1.2.7/filer/templates/admin/filer/folder/directory_table.html template in your project and replace all occurences of file.icons.48
with file.icons.64
. If you want a different size you'll also have to set the FILER_ADMIN_ICON_SIZES
setting (it defaults to ('16', '32', '48', '64')
.
This has the downside that you'll have to check if the overridden template needs to be changed for every new release of django-filer.
A pull request that adds this functionality would be very appreciated.

In Django Filer 1.3.0 (2017-11-02):
If you change alle file.icons.48
to file.icons.64
it changes only the size of the loaded image.
To change the displayed size of the images you need to change https://github.com/divio/django-filer/blob/develop/filer/static/filer/css/admin_filer.css
.filebrowser .navigator-table .column-icon{width:
25px;padding-top:0 !important;padding-bottom:0 !important}
and
.filebrowser .navigator-table .column-icon img{width:
25px;height:auto}
to
48px or 64px accordingly.
