 * I’m using wordpress 3.0.3 and Nextgen 1.7.2. and the images upload normally, 
   but the thumbnails are not generating.
 * I’ve tried downgrading the Nextgen to 1.7.0 and to 1.6.2 and to 1.6.0, but no
   thumbnails in none of them. I had no problems with version 1.6.2 with wordpress
   3.0.1. I can’t confirm with other version of wordpress because I haven’t used
   the plugin with the other versions.
 * After upgrading both wordpress and nextgen the thumbnails generation always stay
   blank.
 * Thank you in advance.

 * I was having the same problem. I noticed my thumbnails worked on one gallery,
   but not the other. I found this:
 * [Nexgen Plugin Support](http://sakinshrestha.com/wordpress/nextgen-gallery-plugin-and-thumbnail-generation-support/)
 * This fixed my problem. It was a memory issue due to large image file size. The
   bar would make it to 100% when creating thumbnails and I wasn’t getting an error
   message on my screen, yet the thumbnails never showed up.
    —————
 * For Older Version:
    You just edit the file “thumbnail.inc.php” which is located
   at: /wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/lib/thumbnail.inc.php
 * Search for
    // @ini_set(‘memory_limit’, ’128M’);
 * Change it to
    ini_set(‘memory_limit’, ’128M’);
 * Now you are done, just save and upload the file.
 * For New Version:
    You will not find the file “thumbnail.inc.php” instead you 
   will find the file “gd.thumbnail.inc.php” which is located in the same location“/
   wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/lib/thumbnail.inc.php” . You just need to 
   edit this file.
 * Search for
    // @ini_set(‘memory_limit’, ’128M’);
 * Change it to
    @ini_set(‘memory_limit’, ’128M’);
