Nice Thanks Reuben, that is exactly what I was looking for.

Ok, so it did have to do with the hosting setup, I guess WP needed an extra php library that wasn’t being referenced properly.
Thanks for helping t-p.
Yay, moving on.

no no image plugins, just the standard featured image uploader on wordpress 3.0.1
I was using the regenerate thumbnails plugin on my local copy and it seems to work fine as well. ie: I will change
add_image_size( ‘featured-thumbnail-medium’, 268, 150, true );
to
add_image_size( ‘featured-thumbnail-medium’, 610, 342, true );
and it resizes all of the old images to match the new size, also new uploads will match the newly defined size.
As I said, on my local version in the uploads folder there are versions for every size I set, ie:
image.jpg
image-268×150.jpg
image-610×342.jpg
But in the live site uploads folder there is only:
image.jpg

thanks but no, I am uploading all images through the WP featured image uploader

Thank you for the swift response Michael, it is now almost there. ??
I changed the echo to output inside of
‘li’ tags, and now I want to limit the number of displayed categories to 5 and exclude some of the other categories

Here was my original list categories statement:
<?php wp_list_categories(‘number=5&exclude=3,13,14,20’); ?>

In the code you sent where would I add this?
‘number=5&exclude=3,13,14,20’

Thanks a ton, I’m just getting started with php.

Well, I figured out the problem at least for myself.
After modifying functions.php, I would remove the post thumb, from the post. However, silly me I wasn’t actually re-uploading the original images, I was just re grabbing them from the gallery.
Glad I was only stuck on this for a day, sometimes simple things get overlooked.

I am also having this problem. The hard crop seems to have no effect?
