I have been working with my ISP to resolve this issue. Permissions are set to 777 in all subdirectories of /home/suzyphp/phpwcms/. He has installed debugging code... and, including the debug info, this is what we get when we try to generate a thumbnail (all paths and directories look ok!):
creating thumbnail! wait a moment!
Array
(
[error] => no thumbnail exists
[max_width] => 538
[max_height] => 400
[image_name] => 1_7.jpg
[target_ext] => jpg
[thumb_text] => _ywb9EPgE3a
[image_dir] => /home/suzyphp/phpwcms/phpwcms_filestorage/1/
[thumb_dir] => /home/suzyphp/phpwcms/phpwcms_tmp/thumb_preview/
[image_thumb_name] => 1_7_ywb9EPgE3a.jpg
[command] => convert -colorspace RGB -type TrueColor -sharpen 2x40 -geometry "538x400>" -quality 85 -density 72x72 "/home/suzyphp/phpwcms/phpwcms_filestorage/1/1_7.jpg[0]" +profile "*" "/home/suzyphp/phpwcms/phpwcms_tmp/thumb_preview/1_7_ywb9EPgE3a.jpg"

Hello citrusluvr,
if it's avilable at your ISP (esp. on your server), take the GD2 functions for processing images (http://www.phpwcms.de/forum/viewtopic.php?t=83).
ImageMagik causes many problems right up in case of PERL. We had a lot trouble with it while building a product for the web. Whit GD(2) everything is fine.
Cheers,
Florian.

When ImageMagic won't work, how do i set up GD?
Thank you, Florian. I will share this with my server folks. Had hoped to be able to use Image Magick because Oliver says it handles more formats.
Now... where can i get more info on setting up GD when ImageMagick won't work?

Hello again,
Is the /home/suzyphp/... directory REALLY the root or ONLY the Webroot? Try to give IM the WHOLE path like /usr/local/home/www/webdirectoryroot. Also try with slash at the and and without. Further I would recommend, that you check the OWNER of /home/suzyphp/phpwcms/ -maybe it's nobody or root.
Cheers,
Florian.
B.T.W.: Here's the link to the requested Installation Guide: http://www.boutell.com/gd/manual2.0.15.html#buildgd.
At Boutell you will find also the version 2.0.15 of GD-Lib for download. Bulid should work without probs by using the guide. Don't forget to restart the Apache after installation (if you're using PHP as a module - gracefull is NOT enough as I assert deep in the night
) If you have any problems with the installation, feel free to post here. I will help as good as I can.
