When I upload an image, G2 doesn seem to create sized images or thumbnails… also, when I enter an album for the first time it takes a LONG time to load. What is the deal, yo?

G2 has some fundamental differences from G1. In G1, thumbs and sized images were created at image upload. In G2, these items are not created UNTIL they are accessed/needed. This means that the first time you view a sized image or album, it may take a while for the images to be generated. Of course, subsequent visits should be much faster because they already exist. I believe there are also plans for the ability to generate the needed images at upload or when ever the user wishes, independant of viewing them for the first time. Update: There is now a check box present during import and upload that allows for the generation of thumbs/sized images right then. Using this will increase the time it takes to upload/migrate, but will take care of it immediately instead of when a user first requests the image.
