 * Inserting a gallery as a slideshow is not working, but inserting as the other
   two options (thumbnails and full screen–can’t remember the names) both work fine.
   Even clicking on show as slideshow within the post doesn’t work–just leaves a
   blank frame. Try it here on this test page. Been at this all day, but have gotten
   no solutions.

 * Thanks for any help.

 * No, did not see that one (probably every other one, but not that). Thanks so 
   much for catching this thread!
 * As you said worked like a charm. Now the only issue is that the slideshow cuts
   the bottom off of my images, no matter which settings I use. Turned off stretch
   and tried all of those settings, set the size to the size of the images and even
   tried it larger. After all of those changes, I can tell it simply wants to justify
   all of the image about 10 pixel below the bottom edge no matter what size or 
   stretch setting I use. Any ideas? I’m going to also post this to the other forum.
 * Much appreciated

 * Nothing off the top of my head. Can you give me a link so I can see what you’re
   talking about?
 * Now…if someone could just fix MY issue! hahah Pictures are uploading but then
   not showing in the gallery – as if the pointers aren’t working?

 * Was able to upload a couple galleries, but now I only get the gallery title and
   a blank square. Like you, I”m going to start a new thread. Fun stuff eh?

 * Took a look at your site and that is really odd. First the obvious–you imported
   to NG the same as the others (each gallery as a separate upload)? File names 
   and extensions are correct? The images show up correctly in your NG library, 
   too? Might check the path in that gallery under manage galleries, too, to see
   if anything happened to that. What happens when you just delete this one and 
   start a new gallery from scratch (thinkin’ it could just be one of those “ghosts
   in the machine” quirks where something along the way went wrong).
 * Here is a link to my issue. I’ve intentionally set the screen color darker so
   you can see the edges and made the vertical 25 pix higher than the highest image.
   If you click on the icon of the break dance guy (third in) before clicking the
   slideshow, you’ll see how the image is supposed to look. Then click the slideshow
   and you’ll see how it justifies on the screen (hand cut off). It is actually 
   doing this on all, but more obvious on that one. Stretch is set to none and I’ve
   tried all of those settings.

 * Thanks for taking a look. I’d also like to know the thread if you set one up 
   for your other issue.
 * Best

 * Well….I seem to get the full image with either the pictures OR the slideshow.
   The full hand, plus some additional white (floor) is visible to me either way.
   It totally looks fine. So not sure what to tell you!
 * Somewhere on the Options page was something about clear Cache. Might try that
   but it’s a total guess.
 * On mine, yep, tried deleting galleries, recreating, reuploading, creating brand
   new galleries, uploading different pictures, clearing the cache on the server,
   waiting overnight, rebooting my computer, reviewing the server stats shown in
   NexGen (which all report fine). I’m at a loss… Here’s the thread: [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-nextgen-gallery-gallery-loads-only-title-and-blank-box-shows?replies=1](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-nextgen-gallery-gallery-loads-only-title-and-blank-box-shows?replies=1)
