Yes, it works. Resizing single image is done without a problem.
I tried several ways to do the same job and this is what I noticed:

1. If I open Gthumb from the menu, browse to a local folder, select
several images and try to resize I get error:
"The folder contents could not be displayed"
Gthumb can't figure out the folder from which the images were opened and
defaults to home folder.

2. If I start from console with same user, the resizing is done and
images are written in the correct folder.

3. If I Browse with file browser (which I prefer because Gthumb has no
tree-like file browser), select images from local folder and choose
"open with gthumb", Gthumb opens in catalog mode and when trying to
resize, the home folder is selected as destination instead the folder
from which I opened the pictures.(If I change catalog mode and back to
folder mode the correct destination folder is selected, but then all
pictures are displayed instead the selected ones and I must make the
selection again)

4. If I browse with file browser and open shared network folder, select
several images and try to resize them, they are copied in the home
folder by default. If I change catalog mode and back to folder mode, the
correct destination folder is selected, but when resizing images are
lost.

5. If I browse with gthumb and I try to open network shared folder, The
images are not selectable and can't be opened at all.
