 * I am going insane trying to figure out why I’m having issues generating thumbnails
   and it doesn’t make any sense at all. I thought it was specifically a NextGen
   gallery issue, as I’ve seen many issues with thumbnail generation but it also
   is applying to featured post thumbnails on my theme now as well, and only for
   new posts and images generated after yesterday. We’ve changed absolutely nothing
   on the website, but thumbnails just won’t generate.
 * For the NextGen Gallery thumbnail issues the common solutions are increase memory(
   which we’ve done even though the images are only like 60kb each), decrease image
   size or dimensions (again only 60kb and right at 640×480 in size so shouldn’t
   be an issue). I’ve even gone in and manually created 200×150 size thumbnails 
   of the image, uploaded them to our FTP folder that they should be in and renamed
   them to the exact filename that the gallery is trying to pull from. This is where
   it gets really weird, because a couple thumbnails did load but the rest still
   won’t, even though the image link is EXACTLY the same as it is in the FTP folder,
   and all permissions are set to 777…..PLEASE HELP, I’ve fixed the NextGen issue
   before but now I can’t seem to find the issue, and I don’t even know where to
   begin for the Featured Post thumbnail not working, but the fact that it’s happening
   to both makes me think its something in wordpress or my server, even though I’m
   on an unlimited host.
