I'm having Category Image problems, but this may not be a bug, it could be my error. So, just to clarify:
In Category: Id = 1, Name = Casual Wear, PictureId=3
In UrlRecord: EntityType= Category, Slug=casual-wear, EntityId=1
In Picture: Id=3, MimeType=image/jpeg, SeoFilename=casual-wear
In Images/thumbs there is an image named: 0000003_casual-wear_450.jpeg
Similar records for other categories all with values that should relate yet all I see is the default-image_450.png as stored in images/thumbs.
Any suggestions as to what might be wrong?

I think I know what caused this. On setup the images are set to be stored in the database, when switching the settings to FileSystem it generates new files in the images folder. In the above example as 0000003_0.jpeg but these files were all empty i.e. 0kb, just a file name. Upon renaming the file 0000003_casual-wear_450.jpeg in images/thumbs to images/0000003_0.jpeg it worked.
As I said at the outset this may well be down to my lack of understanding about what nopCommerce is designed to do and so may not be an error. I'm happy to say now that I know what was causing the problem I am able to resolve my issue.
