I am running my sample website on my own machine on windows, according to phpinfo() i do have GD enabled i also checked php.ini just to be sure. i also tried the workaround provided for robscott to change the gallery. php to the code provided by antonie but that didnt work either! the response i get for checking the sample provided by the plugin is: “ A TimThumb error has occured The following error(s) occured: * Could not find the internal image you specified. Query String : src=wp-content/ plugins/slideshow-gallery/screenshot-1.png&w=500&h=500&q=100&a=t TimThumb version: 2.8.10 “. any help is much appreciated! ps: the plugin works fine except from the image resizing. * Plugin Author [Tribulant Software](https://wordpress.org/support/users/contrid/) * (@contrid) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-slideshow-gallery-broken/page/2/#post-2802313) * [@momolearnstopress](https://wordpress.org/support/users/momolearnstopress/) * I assume that the image does exist? * Are you running a local machine with Windows? What software do you use, what is your setup? There could be a permissions problem on accessing those files. * [momoLearnsToPress](https://wordpress.org/support/users/momolearnstopress/) * (@momolearnstopress) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-slideshow-gallery-broken/page/2/#post-2802314) * hi Antonie thanx for the prompt reply. i am running on my own laptop using XAMPP. the files do exist specially the one i mentioned which is the sample file provided with the plugin. I think too that it could be a problem with permissions but as this is the url of the problematic page [http://localhost:81/wp/wp-content/plugins/slideshow-gallery/vendors/timthumb.php?src=wp-content/plugins/slideshow-gallery/screenshot-1.png&w=500&h=500&q=100&a=t](http://localhost:81/wp/wp-content/plugins/slideshow-gallery/vendors/timthumb.php?src=wp-content/plugins/slideshow-gallery/screenshot-1.png&w=500&h=500&q=100&a=t) which is in the same domain as the image i really can not find the problem! once again thanx for your help. * Plugin Author [Tribulant Software](https://wordpress.org/support/users/contrid/) * (@contrid) * [13 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-slideshow-gallery-broken/page/2/#post-2802315) * @ momoLearnsToPress * The problem is specific to TimThumb and XAMPP. If you run it on an online server, you probably won’t have the problem. * If you Google “TimThumb XAMPP” you come across many people with the exact same problem.
