Browser Icons Sometimes Don't Render Properly

Sometimes when I drag a figure into My Objects in the content Browser it creates a reasonable looking icon for it. At other times the icon generated is all black. I'm not sure what's going on. Anybody know about this and how to prevent it?
Thanks

I think it renders the image as seen by your main camera,
Also make sure you haven't turned off visibiliy for any parts of your object - or they won't get shown in the render.
Thanks for the ideas. It seems it reloads your item to a new empty scene, then render it use the default camera. Since I was dragging stuff into the library from locations well away from Scene Origin I got the black icon.
