I've installed a clean Wordpress 2.5 on my server at home to test some gallery things and I can upload photos without any problems but the gallery short code in a post only displays the full-sized photos. No medium or thumbnails are displayed, even with the size argument in the gallery shortcode.

The same thing happens to me.
WP posts full size images overlapping each other instead of a thumbnail gallery.
I think this was fixed in WP 2.5.1. If nothing else, try this plugin, which fixes quite a few issues with 2.5 and 2.5.1:

I've having a similar problem. For me, the gallery shortcode DOES display thumbnails, but they're not actually thumbnails. They're the full-size image, scaled down in the browser using height and width attributes in the image tag. For pages with LOTS of pictures (like a 'Pictures' category which shows all blog posts with pictures), this means loading a lot of large images and is very slow, not to mention unnecessary.
Anyone know how to get the gallery shortcode to load actual thumbnails rather than faking it?
Any fixes to this, pascalpp?
