The updater is still being worked on. In the mean time I completely removed the PIL libs and redid the way we resize images. So it should run on win/linux/mac 32/64 without any problems!

I just updated to the latest development build, I'm loving all the updates. Unfortunately, I'm still not seeing any thumbnail images on the XMBC or dashboard pages. Running on Ubuntu 11.10 server with Python 2.7.2+ installed.

Same thing here. Thumbs were working fine earlier, but now they are broken. There are no thumbs in userdata/xbmc_thumbs (I did completely clean install from development branch), but it tries to write something like "4d38189.tbn_100_150_original.png" there, but those files gets immediatly deleted.
I used command watch -d -n 1 ls -l to see if anything gets written in that folder.
(I am NOT a linux guru..)Ubuntu 12.04 Server (32 bit) / Python 2.7.3rc2

Can you post log your file?

Here are some logs (I don't know actually what logs do you need) when opening HTPC Manager front page and after that XBMC tab.
Standard outputs, when running python htpc.py 1>std.txt 2>err.txt
- std.txt: http://pastebin.com/fhR9NZvv
- err.txt: http://pastebin.com/VBiAYUss
XMBC log (snipped to only relevant time)

(HTPC Manager doesn't seem to be requesting any thumbs when I clicked XBMC tab?)

Try updating again
They should display correctly now

Just updated to the latest, and it's working now, however its loading slow and on the settings page I'm getting this error:
Warning: Failed to resize thumbnails. This can be slow on some browsers. For more information and a solution on how to fix this visit http://htpcmanager.org/#faq
But the link is not working, how do I fix the issue? Also what does the option "Regenerate Thumnails" do? When I select it and click save changes, it goes back to being unchecked after the page reloads.

The images are working fine now, even with my old version of python. Not sure if that was intentional or not but thanks

I had the same problem. It's not finding program to resize your thumbs. For me, it was using PIL and it was awfully slow (python_imaging).
What I did (and you should perhaps try?) was:
- Shut down HTPC Manager
- Remove current thumbs by simply removing folder [HTPC Manager root]/userdata/xbmc_thumbs (it will be created again)
- install libfreeimage3 (apt-get install libfreeimage3 should find it)
- and if I wanted to be sure, I would probably empty [HTPC Manager root]/userdata/config.cfg file. By doing that, you have to put all your settings again, but it's quite fast process.
- Empty your browsers cache
- Start HTPC Manager. Note that first time loading of those thumbs will be slower, since it is resizing them on the fly. Next time those should be ready and things should speed up.
If I have understood things correctly HTPC Manager tries to resize thumbs (in Linux) first with Freeimage, then with Imagemagic if Freeimage cannot be found, then with PIL if Freeimage or Imagemagic cannot be found, and if even PIL doesn't work, it bithces about it.
One thing that I have noticed: Using Opera (Windows) as a browser to view HTPC Manager slows things down considerably. Both Firefox and Chrome are much faster loading HTCP Manager XMBC pages/tabs. I don't know if that is Operas fault or something to do with jquery (or something). Opera is usually quite fast browser and it's javascript engine is quite good.
