 * No idea, if you didn’t get any error message, have a look for permission

 * over here also no error but neither thumbnails showing up. Also no files in the
   thumbdir after several times made over new thumbnails.
    Checked permissions, 
   chmod the whole dirtree tot 777 but nothing seems to help.
 * Installed the plugin this morning from a fresh download.

 * I also have the same problem: i get no error, but also no thumbnails; i do get
   a thumbs folder.
 * I have different installations: the one that is giving troubles is one that has
   been updated from earlier versions of WP and NGG; a fresh installation (WP 2.7
   and NGG 1.0.2) doesn’t give me any trouble.
 * Any idea?

 * Every plugin requires more memory, maybe you use smaller images, maybe with your
   other blog you are hard at the limit, so it work’s could work…
