I also have this problem. I believe it has to do with MF not being able to resize a very large photo down to thumbnail size. I was able to get it to display the thumbnail if I uploaded smaller – say 500x500px – images. If I can’t find a better solution, I might try using a plugin that will post process images to resize them. My users are uploading extremely unnecessarily large images in the 2MB+ range.
What plugin do you use? (I might try using a plugin that will post process images to resize them)
I have not tried this option (possible workaround) yet but I will tonight. I was going to try:
http://wordpress.org/plugins/resize-image-after-upload/
I will post my findings tomorrow.
Have you tested the resize-image-after-upload plugin?
It seemed to fix my problem. Your problem could be different. Anyway, I think it is worth a try. Ultimately, I converted the site to use the Advanced Custom Fields plugin because I also need the images to be cropped and there is an addon to the ACF plugin that allows for that.
Good Luck!

Hi laetitia Godet this happend with all images (different sizes)?
hunk,
In my case, if I right-clicked on the broken image icon that displayed where the real image should have displayed and choose View Image it produced the following error:
Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 19398656) (tried to allocate 9792 bytes) in /home1/boca/public_html/directory/wp-content/plugins/magic-fields-2/MF_thumb.php on line 111
The source produced for the broken image was:
<img id="img_thumb_profile_image_1_1" src="http://xxxxxxx.com/directory/wp-content/plugins/magic-fields-2/thirdparty/phpthumb/phpThumb.php?&w=150&h=120&src=http://xxxxxxx.com/directory/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/William-Kamholtz-e1399427040792.jpg">

i see, yep this a problem with memory of php, which is the size of your image?
yes it is with all image sizes. But the problem comes from the evening wordpress version of either magic field as with the old version no problem
I tested this plugin resize Effective upload picture but it does not work better. I have this error “ERR_CONTENT_LENGTH_MISMATCH”?
