Smart Thumbs help anyone?

[greentshirt]

Well I consider myself to be pretty tech savvy so I'm frustrated that I can't figure this out.

I installed Smart Thumbs recently as someone suggested it is one of the better TGP scripts and I could try it for free and later upgrade without having to reinstall.

I got it installed and I've read the initial setup instructions more than a couple of times but between the bad English in the text and the non intuitive setup procedure I'm getting a little frustrated.

I'm at the point where I'm trying to generate an index file. I've made a category, got a few sample galleries uploaded but now I'm getting this error when I try to "rotate" the index:

Thumbs group Movies rotation log:
Group category: ALL
Marks in template: 3, add new/old: 2
Unique galleries in group: 1 (enabled - without text & deleted & autocropped & used before galleries)
[COLOR="Red"]Not enough galleries for full rotation functionality in this group, add more galleries into database![/COLOR]
First part found galleries: 1
Autocasting found galleries: 5
New part found galeries: 0
Warning: Second query found 0 galleries (new/old part).
Warning: Third query found 0 galleries (last part).
Last part found galeries: 0
Warning: Fourth query found 0 galleries (1st rescue).
Not enough galleries -> 1st rescue galleries: 0
Rescue autocropped galleries: 3
Not enough galleries -> 2nd rescue galleries: 1
No spots for specific time & position found
No clicks spots found

As suggested, I've tried adding more galleries, my summary page now reads:

All thumbs / texts: 118 / 12
New thumbs / texts / niches: 1 / 12 / 118
Autocropped: 117

But I'm still getting the error. Am I missing some instructions on a certain gallery threshold before I can generate an index file?

Also, is this really considered the best bet for TGPs or are there more intuitive alternatives?

Appreciate any help, thx.

Do you solve your problem?

No, I think I'll try a different script.

I installed ST and ATIII and have no clue what the URL to both webmaster signup forms are so i can add those to the templates;-)

Damn it's been years since I had to redo a TGP, lol.
