I have loaded up a directory of thumbnail images to images/stories/thumbs (I have kept there names the same as the large images example; dsc001.jpg) and I have also uploaded a copy of the large image to images/stories/large.

When I view the pages I see empty boxes scrolling when I click on one, it shows the root directory in the opened window, listing the full directory contents,

What am i doing wrong?

Just right click the empty box and look the image properties and get the complete Image URL. Paste the URL in the browser and check whether the image is displayed or not.

If you still find problems, give me the website link.

Its actually the image scroler that I am having problems with, I can see the thumbnails but when I click on it to open it just hangs the site is www.lucas.000a.biz, any help would be great
