 * Hi,
 * When I try to upload images from whole directories or zipped files, and NextGen
   is going to create thumbnails, it just looks like this:
 * [http://webzone.k3.mah.se/kit02040/imgs/cannotcreatethumb.jpg](http://webzone.k3.mah.se/kit02040/imgs/cannotcreatethumb.jpg)
 * I left it alone for during one night (for 8 hrs) so that the plugin could work
   alone without me disturbing it by doing other things, but on the morning, it 
   looked the same.
 * I just cannot understand what the problem is.. do you?
 * Thanks in advance!
    Greetings Emelie

 * Success!
 * I tried to minimize the pictures I uploaded to 800 mixels in width and then it
   worked. Seems like NextGen Gallery can’t handle too big picture files.
