Uploading Images fail

[ghog]

I am trying to add images to my gallery categories however phoca is not generating the thumbnail and instead just renders a white box. If I click on this I receive the following error:

[code]getimagesize(/home/wwwpart/public_html/images/phocagallery/indecent/june_08/thumbs/phoca_thumb_l_MG_5651.jpg) [function.getimagesize]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/wwwpart/public_html/administrator/components/com_phocagallery/helpers/phocagallery.php on line 43[/code]

Any ideas what could be causing this Jan?

Hi, maybe you have some problems with GD library on your server, maybe the thumbnail is not created (GD, php memory ???)

See the topic about thumbnail does not work. You have to rezise your photo's to about 1024 x ..... keep aspect ratio or 1280 x ..... When you upload photo's direct out of the camera there are to many pixels. A photo form about 3 to 4 MB in JPEG format contains about 25 to 30 Megapixels, the GD library can handle a picture that's about 10 megapixels. So if you do not pre procces the photo's the GD library functions tresses and you get the fatal error message. So first photoshop the images to the right size.
