Hi Paul,
I think many of us had that same fight. I've given up on finding out why, although I caught it once and then forgot how it went again. (I do remember that it had something to do with virtual path within virtual path etc..) Nowadays I solve it this way: <Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/";> <Module Url="_catalogs/masterpage" Name="PublishingPages" Path=""> ... <File Url=" ContentSummary.aspx" Type="GhostableInLibrary" IgnoreIfAlreadyExists="TRUE"> <Property Name="MasterPageDescription" Value="ContentSummary page layout" /> <Property Name="Title" Value="ContentSummary" /> <Property Name="PublishingPreviewImage" Value="/_layouts/yourSubFolder/images/previews/Content.png, layouts/yourSubFolder/images/previews/Content.png " /> <Property Name="PublishingHidden" Value="False" /> <Property Name="PublishingAssociatedContentType" Value=";#Content Page;#0x010100C568DB52D9D0A14D9B2FDCC96666E9F2007948130EC3DB064584E21995 4237AF390064DEA0F50FC8C147B0B6EA0636C4A7D400F1C975B0347C2A46B45663F506xx xx22;#" /> <Property Name="ContentType" Value="Page Layout" /> </File> ... </Module> </Elements> Where I nicely use the file system (in the trusted _layouts/yoursubfolder/ etc ..) and things work a treat. And have your images in the 12 hive structure of your feature. See if that solves it for you?

Can someone please, please help me out before I do some drastic to my personage? I've attempted every variation of path and url for my <module> and my preview images are still not being deployed. Neither is the Previewe Image value being set for the masterpage. I know the feature and files are getting updated because of changes made to the masterpage's Description. And the images are being properly added to the feature folder in the hive. I am now trying to create a new folder in the masterpage gallery and upload the images to that. Here's what I have in my provisioning file. It's so simple I don't understand what could be going wrong. No errors on deployment or activation. <Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/";> <Module Url="_catalogs/masterpage" Name="CEOPages" Path="Pages" RootWebOnly="TRUE">> <File Url="CEO.master" Type="GhostableInLibrary" > <Property Name="MasterPageDescription" Value="This master page is set as the default for all CEO publishing sites." /> <Property Name="PublishingContact" Value="" /> <Property Name="PublishingHidden" Value="False" /> <Property Name="ContentType" Value="Publishing Master Page" /> <Property Name="PublishingPreviewImage" Value="~SiteCollection/_catalogs/masterpage/CEOPreviews/CEO-master.png, ~SiteCollection/_catalogs/masterpage/CEOPreviews/CEO-master.png" /> </File> </File> </Module> <Module Name="CEOPreviews" Url="_catalogs/masterpage/CEOPreviews" Path="Previews" RootWebOnly="TRUE"> <File Url="CEO-master.png" Name="CEO-master.png" Type="GhostableInLibrary" /> </Module> </Elements> Regards, Paul Online Developer, ICT CEO Sydney From: ozmoss-boun...@ozmoss.com [mailto:ozmoss-boun...@ozmoss.com] On Behalf Of Paul Noone Sent: Wednesday, 3 February 2010 2:24 PM To: ozMOSS Subject: MasterPage feature - preview images Hi all, I want to provision some custom preview images the Preview Images folder (not /en-us/..) in the root of the master page gallery. I've looked at a few references but they either seem to send to the en-us language folder, or else deploy to the site's image library. Can someone please provide the right syntax to do this? I believe what I currently have will deploy to the default language folder. Do I just remove the IncludeFolders parameter? <Module Name="PublishingLayoutsPreviewImages" Url="_catalogs/masterpage" IncludeFolders="??-??"
