Need help resolving Mihalism Thumbnail Error

    Hey guys,

    I'm seeking for help regarding a specific problem I have.
    I guess most of you know the Mihalism Image Hosting Script.
    The thing is, I moved to a different host, and everything works fine, except the Thumbnails.
    For some reason, they don't seem to appear.

    An Example can be seen on my Website, which is in my signature.

    If you click on 'Public Gallery', or upload an image, you'll realize that there are no thumbnails appearing.

    I've really tried so much, but I can't seem to resolve this problem.
    I've also consulted my host. But they don't know whats wrong.

    Anyone know how to solve it, or have some ideas?

    Would really appreciate your help on this.

    Thanks in advance.

    GD with FreeType is there, so it's something more host specific, that should be all that's needed.

    Have you checked your error_log?

    There's nothing significant in there either.

    I can't find anything either, you have all the needed things, contact your host.

    Something basic: did you check the CHMOD of the directories?

    Your thumbnails directory should be CHMOD 777.

    It *possibly* may not show up in the error_log as the script may use is_writeable() before writing to it, never seen the source though.

    The thing is, this script does not have any thumbnail dir.
    There is a thumbnail generating module, that generates the thumbnails.

    But I cant seem to find the folder where they are..

    Let me suggest a simple fix.
    FTP into your www dir and CHMOD the 'images' dir to 777.

    rep appreciated if that helps you fix the issue :)
