Thumbnails automatically on upload???

[salewit]

I'm confused as can be. I have several Gallery websites, and decided to try this one. Its got some great features. But the thumbnail issue has me scratching my head.

Let me get this straight. When I upload or anyone uploads, the thumbnail is NOT created right then and there? I have to MANUALLY do something to create a thumbnail? Is there any way or mod out there that will thumbnail an uploaded image? Why would I NOT want a thumbnail to be created immediately upon upload?

I searched this forum and the FAQS, and found several topics, but nothing pertaining to this.

Thanks
Sam

are you sure?

go to admin control panel -> settings -> select whitch module do u want to use to create thumbnails (GD, ImageMagick or NetPBM), scroll little bit down, and set to "yes" Auto-create thumbnail

I got all that down. But when I upload an image, or anyone else uploads an image, there is nothing there but the stock thumbnail image. I have to manually click on the "AUTO THUMBNAILER" link on the Admin control panel to get a thumbnail.

Oh and one other point: If you did not allow "direct upload" for "registered users" or "all" (depending on what you want) in the "edit categories" in the admin menu, then no user can directly upload any pictures  

Just want to make it little clear:
direct upload means - uploaded picture automaticaly add into the gallery, no validation by admin needed
