Bug Description
Hello,
Some pictures don't have thumbnails. Appears a red/pink square instead and I can't load the full picture by double-clicking.
1. It happens with some of my old file. It was scans from negatives film then worked with Photoshop CS2 (don't know if it helps you).
"Recreate Thumbnail" doesn't work. Here's the output :
-------
forcing thumbnail creation
MAKING THUMB FOR Archives/
resize time 0.0305740833282
creating FAILED thumbnail Archives/
resize time 0.0235450267792

2. It happens with .tiff files

Thanks for the report.
Are you using the option "Use embedded thumbnails if available"? If
so, a current limitation is that if there is no embedded thumbnail
there is no way to create it. This feature is still a little
experimental and I plan to improve it.
If you haven't checked this option, then this is probably a limitation
of the thumbnailing code. I am using the python imaging library or
dcraw to create thumbnails for most image types. I can probably come
up with an alternative way to retrieve the thumbnails. It would be
helpful if you could share some of these files with me (either email
them to me or host them somewhere I can download them).
