OK, no problems with G2 at all. I think what i'm doing is the problem ! :-D

I have an Insect Photography album. The properties of this album are images are 150 px.

Within this album are more albums. The property of each of these sub-albums are image sizes 100 px.

I also have random highlight set at 1 minute for each subalbum.

Now, when I go into the insect photography album, whenever G2 refreshes the album highlights, some are using the Insect Photography album image size property of 150 px size, while other albums use their own image size propety of 100 px size. And it's always random.

So basically, you have some nested albums at 150 px dimensions and some at 100 dimensions.

I want the images within these nested albums 100 pixels in size. but i want the nested albums highlight to be 150 pixels in size.

what i'm assuming is that the server has to rebuild the images to 100 and 150 to suit my twisted purposes? LOL

If i have to go back to all thumbnails sized 150 pics that's fine, i just thought i could be different! heheh

thanks

no, you're not doing anything wrong.. this looks like a bug.
i tested a similar setup and found the thumbnails are actually generated correctly (do 'view image' on one that appears to be the wrong size..) but the html width/height are set to the wrong size. so something is going wrong when estimating the size before the thumbnail is rebuilt.

Fix committed to cvs.. thanks for the test case! I'd seen this before but hadn't tracked down the cause.
