I'm thrilled to have the rc3 full installer! I had gotten frustrated with the updates that last time I messed up my gallery, and was waiting for the full installer before I tried t fix things.

Anyway, I wiped out the whole previous install, set up a new database, and everything seemed go to pretty smoothly.

My one problem is getting the correct sized photos to show up. EE's making the images, and putting them in the right spot, but it seems to be showing the large images when I ask for the mediums. It could be something as simple as a cache problem on my end but I think it's something more.

Here's the gallery:

Here's the individual images (just to show that they are there)

I've double checked the paths and I think they are okay. What am I doing wrong?

In path editor, check first that each path has different variable name. Then set variable name default for the path you need to show up by default.

Thanks Pekka,

That did the trick. I guess "Other variable names should be unique" couldn't be much more clear, but I missed it. I really was trying to follow along.

Sorry for taking up your time, but as always, I appreciate the quick and helpful response.

The size path variable system will be redesigned in near future - I'll drop variable names alltogether and replace them with "preferred order of sizes" -system which does not allow various conflicts current system has.
