I have no idea what is going on but this has happened to me numerous times.
When I upload my image & then check recent images, the wrong thumbnail is up. It will post a thumbnail of mine from a previous image. Weird & frusterating. I keep going to edit & uploading the thumb again but it continues to post an old one. Helpp Zeee!!!!!! I am ready to pull my hair out!!!!

It happened to me too, only once however. Then maybe it wasn't ME who was doing something wrong! :)

It is still messed up. You have two of the sylvania bulb up on the thumbs, but one is the close to my heart pic. Wierd.

I am back to complain about those thumbnails again. They are driving me insane Zee! Everytime I upload an image I have to do it at least twice because the firsttime the thumbnail is always one from a different image.
I was looking at my portfolio & all the thumbs are messed up!!! 4 or 5 images have the same thumbnail.
Helpppp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought it was a cache problem last time and it worked itself out. I'll try and check tomorrow on what's wrong.

I think I've found the problem. In the folder on the server where your images are kept, if there are any that share the same name, they are just over-written. Try using unique names, even for the thumbnails. IE, blueflower.jpg / blueflower-thumb.jpg
--
Try to make sure every file uploaded has unique names. If you go back and edit your others, this should fix everything.

Ah ha...I never thought of that! When I make thumbs for my images I always title them "thumbs" & just delete them after. Didn't realize I was creating such chaos.Oops...blonde moment:)
Thanks Zee.
