similar to: XP not creating thumbs.db on samba shares?

The reason for this is these will not be photos but portfolio pieces and I would like the thumbs to focus on a vital part of the piece.

the full-size pics upload OK, but no thumbs or resizing. There are no errors or exceptions that I can see, just not getting any thumbnails.

Hi there, I''m writing a little application that parses an image file and extracts the camera settings from the file (the EXIF data) and saves all the fields to the database. The idea is that after awhile people will be able to search based on camera make, model, lens settings, etc... and all the pictures that meet those requirements will be displayed. The picture is stored on the file

RMagick Image Rendering I am fairly new to Ruby on Rails and I have been trying to upload images and create thumbnails using the "Processing Uploaded Images" recipe from the Rails Recipes book.

Hello, Iam providing access to many images on a share to windows users from my linux samba over the internet.
