Michael, thankyou for looking at this I noticed the reindex comment. What we have done is redated albums to prompt a reindex so we can see what happens... and hey presto the images are reappearing immediately.
Is the issue related to indexing of images and reindexing. What can we do to ensure that images remain indexed. Is it intentional that images should fall away from the index?
