did you migrate to new server? are the permissions set correctly?
You checked the folder permissions, but did you check with your ftp client that existing imagefiles have also permissions set to 0777
this is done automatically when a new image is created but if you copied files with ftp when migrating to new server, it could be that the images have different permissions.

  1. To test this (and if you have square thumbnails set to yes and croptool activated in acp - in edit image section) you can go to edit image for any image (select it in the imagetools dropdown in showimage), and see if croptool works. it should regenerate a new square thumbnail with a different view depending on what you select.
    if it does not work (if there is no new thumbnail generated) then its a permissions problem.. you then will have to set permissions for image files to 0777 with your ftp client.
    But if it works, goto to ACP=>vbgallery=>maintenance and select rebuild image sizes (thumbnails, all categories) and let it run.
  2. Another idea.
    goto ACP=>vbgallery=>edit categories
    check in all categories if at the bottom in Uploading Options and Allowed Filetypes you have the use defaults checked everywhere
    if it was NOT the case check use defaults and then goto:ACP=>vbgallery=>maintenance and select rebuild image sizes (thumbnails, all categories) and let it run to rebuild the thumbnails.

If both do not work... I would have to take a closer look.

PS: to make testing quicker, in ACP=>vbgallery=>maintenance .. rebuild image sizes do NOT select ALL categories but only a small one to see if it works...
