1. A system, comprising:
a memory; and
a processor that, when executing computer executable instructions stored in the memory, is configured to:
generate a user interface that includes:
a thumbnail representing a playlist including a plurality of media content items, wherein each of a plurality of images represents a respective media content item from the plurality of media content items and wherein the thumbnail has a subsection including a dynamic portion including a first subset of images selected from the plurality of images; and
one or more other thumbnails, wherein each of the one or more other thumbnails represents a respective one of one or more other media content items;
detect a shift in the user interface that includes the thumbnail and the one or more other thumbnails that causes a change in position of the thumbnail and the one or more other thumbnails about the user interface; and
responsive to detecting the shift in the user interface that includes the thumbnail and the one or more other thumbnails, reposition the first subset of images within the subsection including the dynamic portion of the thumbnail and replace at least one of the first subset of images with at least one of a second subset of images from the plurality of images within the subsection including the dynamic portion.
