    Not sure, exactly, but it's likely a configuration problem somewhere. This:
    
    http://articlemarketinggeek.com/wp-content/themes/arthemia/scripts/timthumb.php?src=//images/2.jpg&w=150&h=150&zc=1&q=100
    
    Code (markup):
    leads to a 404 error. So, either the script is trying to pull the image from the wrong location, or the image isn't uploaded to the right location.

    i think the image's url is wrong, "//images/2.jpg"

    check the relative urls of these images, or use the absolute url

    I am using gallery theme with timthumb as the thumbnail generator.

    When i was developing this site, i noticed that no matter what i did i couldn't get the thumbnails to show up, though the large pics did just fine. So, talked with my hosting company, a programmer, and the author of the theme. All baffled. Seems some servers are configured diff. Well, my workaround was to use RELATIVE urls, since the full url made the thumbs not show up.

    For instance, I upload a pic to a post, and then have to remove the first part
    http://www.artforthesoulofit.com/wp-content/uploads/Fancy-Gals-1-72.jpg
    to /wp-content/uploads/Fancy-Gals-1-72.jpg

    so that worked, BUT now i want to create an rss feed, and the images won't show up, because, duh, they are not full urls, only the relative. So, now this workaround kicked me in the pants.

    Does anyone know how to make the thumbnails show up with full url???

    Anything to try? And how do i start a new post, rather than reply to this one?

    Thanks!!!
