drumsy: Question for ya... Have you tried the following:

...adding a game via admincp...

upload the thumbnail manually into your /graphics directory... add the game like usual, put in your local path of the game "c:\thumb-1.gif" for example... (same filename you put in your graphics directory earlier). Then after entering all the info like hash etc, click submit. Yes I know, the thumbnail will never upload but this step is NECESSARY because it creates something *somewhere*.

Then when done, go to your proarcade and you should see just the title, no icon or broken image at all. Go into phpmyadmin and go to "arcadegames" table, and browse. You should see down in the list the game you just added. In the column where the thumbnail should be should be blank. Add the name ONLY of what you uploaded into the /graphics directory and let me know if this works for you? If so, we have the same problem.

Now people might be asking themselves, well of course that should work if you put the thumbnail in there manually. Nope! If you do NOT put the name into the admin thumbnail textfield it will not work! This step is necessary even though it uploads NOTHING via the admincp for me, it still must create a note somewhere of the name. If you just add a game and don't fill in that field, and submit.. Then go to phpmyadmin and add the title in there it will *NOT* work. Odd eh? Would love to have this looked at. It's the only hack I can't get to work (without a workaround) out of 50 I just installed this week on a fresh vB 2.3.0.

Jason, I will have to try this later in the day. Thanks for looking into this for me!
