Can't get the thumbnail to show was created by Gavrillo

Hi First thanks for a great program. I'm having a problem showing the thumbnail in the gallery module (I hope I'm in the right place -- if not apolgies). I've got one row and one column showing (ie just one video). Whatever I do I can't seem to get a picture to show in the module

in Video thumb and preview are both set to the path below

The same path is used in the categories thumb. I've tried changing everything I can think of including removing the leading ttp:// bit.

Nothing I do produces a thumbnail. You help would be appreciated.

ttp://localhost/konp/media/com_allvideoshare/videos/introduction.jpg

Kindly try loading the following URL directly in your browser,
http://localhost/konp/media/com_allvideoshare/videos/introduction.jpg
Your browser must display the image. If it throws error, then the file path is wrong. Kindly try adding the correct file path.

Hi I'm still having problems with the thumbnail. It works on by test site (ie on my local machine) but I can't get it to work on the live site (ie the one hosted remotely)

I've put in http://localhost/..jpg Whatever I do it doesn't appear. Help appreciated. BTW great program. Thanks

Sorry, the 'localhost' path will not work in live websites. Kindly upload the images to your live site and use the live website path in the image fields.

Many thanks for your prompt reply. That worked. It all seems obvious afterwards, so sorry for the trouble.
