I find it quite odd, and anoying, when Gnome decides not to do a preview of some photos. I'll load a bunch of photos from my camera, and some of them will stay as generic icons and others will show the preview. What gives?
Try going System > Preferences > File Management then click the preview tab. I'm guessing that the default preview file size is for files smaller than 4 megs (or similar) and your camera is producing files around the 4 megs size some bigger and some larger so they aren't being previewed.
(I'm assuming Gnome 2.12.1 btw, although other versions should be similar)
Aye, that's it! I hadn't even thought of looking for a preference like that, and I didn't notice some of the images from my 6 megapixel camera were less than 4MB!
Cheers, Tim.
