 * I recently installed NGG and the features are fantastic – exactly what I need
   but I have a problem when generating thumbnails from larger images.
 * When using the gallery to upload I recieve an error for each image when the thumbnail
   is being created (each time the bar moves along a % it then reports a failure(
   for example – ID 167: A failure occurred).
 * Hovering over the More button gives no detail as to what has actually failed.
   The thumb icons are not displayed or created in the thumbs folder but when i 
   click the red X it does load the original image.
 * my images are fairly large (2-3mb each) so i changed to PHP5 to increase my PHP
   memory as i was previously getting memory errors but as that is fixed im not 
   sure what is causing this 2nd problem.
 * I do get thumbs to generate on smaller images but I dont want to go through every
   image I have and resize.
 * Any ideas on how i can get a little more detail from the error or is this something
   anyone has seen before?
 * Let me know if you need any specific details and i shall provide. Any help is
   appriciated.

 * I’m getting the same errors. I’m using PNGs which should be working fine. But
   aren’t.
