Assuming that your images are where they should be:

http://phpthumb.sourceforge.net/demo/docs/phpthumb.faq.txt said:

Check that these two values are present and properly configured in phpThumb.config.php (introduced in v1.6.0):
$PHPTHUMB_CONFIG['allow_src_above_docroot'] (default=false)
$PHPTHUMB_CONFIG['allow_src_above_phpthumb'] (default=true)

If your images are outside DOCUMENT_ROOT (this includes if you have an image upload form, most likely the images will get uploaded to "/tmp/<file>" or similar) then you will have to configure 'allow_src_above_docroot' to true.

Make sure whatever user the webserver is running as has read permission to the file/directory you're reading from.

That file is the following: (cant find what to change)

// * temp directory configuration
// phpthumb() may need to create temp files. Usually the system temp dir is writable and can be used.

// you should change this to a full pathname to a directory you do have write access to.

// installed it will bypass most of these limits
// maximum number of pixels in source image to attempt to process entire image in gd mode.
// if this is zero then no limit on source image dimensions.
// if this is nonzero then this is the maximum number of pixels the source image
// can have to be processed normally, otherwise the embedded exif thumbnail will
// be used (if available) or an "image too large" notice will be displayed.
// this is to be used for large source images (> 1600x1200) and low php memory
// limits. If php runs out of memory the script will usually just die with no output.
// to calculate this number, multiply the dimensions of the largest image
// you can process with your memory limitation (e.g. 1600 * 1200 = 1920000)
// as a general guideline, this number will be about 20% of your php memory

Just copy $PHPTHUMB_CONFIG['allow_src_above_docroot'] to clipboard (CTRL+C in Windows), then use the Find feature in your browser (CTRL+F in FireFox v8), pasting it into the Find field, to find where that line is in the file. If that is what you need to change to fix your problem, just change the value following it to true.

The line is under the // * security configuration section.

If there is something else going on, sorry but I am not very familiar with phpThumb and I am guessing someone would need access to your site to figure out what the actual problem was.

Sorry to hear that didn't help. This is outside my wheelhouse right now (still working on learning web programming). I hope someone else comes along that can help you.

You might also want to try asking on the official Wordpress Support Forums. There are some folks there who are extremely talented and very familiar with Wordpress.

There is probably a folder called "cache" in your theme files or in the uploads folder. Try to check the permission on it and make sure it's 777. If you find that directory and it already has 777 permission, then delete the file with the odd and long name and check to see if you images are showing or not again.

Those steps usually work on themes that have this "cache" directory.

Where is the site? All I see on that link is a landing page?

BTW, I love the way your site says "no sign up required" and then asks for an email address.
