Re: Thumbnails won't display in folder view

John,
Well, I am making progress or maybe just muddling the problem. I tried your last two suggestions and then went through all my picture folders and set the "Views" button to "extra large icons" and made sure the "View" on the menu bar was set the same. (I did the file association fixes for jpg, jpeg, mpg, bmp, gif, and tif)
Now I have picture thumbnails in all my picture folders and subfolders. All my other folders are set to "Details". So far, so good!
Now when I go to personalize my desktop the browse window shows placeholder icons for the images. (Blueish ones for .jpg and orangeish ones for .bmp)(See screenshot 2). Now I can set .bmp files as background but not .jpg.
I am grateful for your patience and expertise!
