And on Mac (FF, Safari, Opera and IE) as well.
Though I too had sometimes problems with them showing, but I figured it was because I tempered with my preferences.

What system are you using, plus what kind of browser?
Furthermore, check if in you preferences the use of floating thumbs is set to 'yes'.

RE: thumbnail previews..
Then again, am behind my laptop right now, indeed no floating thumbs, in Internet Explorer.
Firefox doesn't show this problem nor does Opera.

The problem doesn't seem to occur in 'latest images'.

I'm looking at the site in IE6 under Windows XP and I can't replicate the error - everywhere the floating thumbnails are working (see attached screenshot). Stefan, could you check again and give me your OS / browser settings? Could anyone else tell me if they have this problem using Internet Explorer?

Figured it out - but now something else
Running Win XP Home Edition, IE6.02

The problem was that the floating thumbnails won't show untill every thumbnail on the page is showing (and I had it set to 240, which took a little while to load). So, problem solved!

There is something else - minor though - showing in IE6; the magnifier goes to the next line, causing the red block to be bigger than it should (see attachment).

RE: thumbnail previews..
That's because you're using a slightly modified XP theme - all of your controls are a bit larger than normally (see attached example). Because the navigation options are packed tightly together, they can't handle the extra space needed for your larger controls.

Anyway, I've tweaked the navigation menus a bit so there is more space left around them - could you check if it works?

i'm having the issue with XP/firefox. i just gave a peek in IE (i know, should've done that before) but receive an "error on page" on initial rollover, and a "broken image" type dispay on hover (see attached)

i should note that this issue has only been of late, and i haven't changed my prefs/setup at all prior to...

Hi mattroch, the problem you described is now fixed.

I will spare you the technical details, but it was a nasty bug in the Clippings page that only showed itself when you'd selected "large thumbnails" on a different page. Thanks for spotting it Smile

Btw I saw in your profile that you're from Winnipeg, Canada. One of my favorite ska-bands hails from your town - the "Royal Winnipeg Porn Orchestra". Ever heard of them?

Porn Orchestra?? Tsk.. Roll Eyes
I finally found time (my vacation started right now) to check on the changes you made in IE. Looking great overhere, thank you Lex!

Hi Lex!

No, sorry. Not a huge ska fan, though I do enjoy in moderation. Or if heavily peppered with punk. Will keep my ear to the ground for them now of course. Thanks for the heads up! We have a TONNE of great music out here, so is no suprise that some of them fall the the cracks on my radar screen.

Thanks again for all the effort you guys put into this site. Is a terrific resource for certain.

Cheers!
