FrontPage 2002 Auto Thumbnails problem

After creating thumbnails using the 'Auto Thumbnails' tool, I attempt
to save the page, but the 'Save Embedded Files' box does NOT appear.
Therefore, the page is saved, but the thumbnails are not saved, and do
not appear next time I open the web after FrontPage has been closed.

I can see that the thumbnails are created in the
"/LOCALS~1/Temp/FrontPageTempDir" folder, as *_small.jpg, but
FrontPage doesn't ever create a permanent copy and the files are lost
when FrontPage is closed.

Any ideas? I've already searched other postings and Microsoft KB.
 
I was just going to post about this same problem ... using XP and FP2002, I
had the same issue arise -- but please note, the normal size version of the
image was properly imported into the images folder prior to the thumbnails
being made (CTRL+T) so, in my case at least, that is not a solution to the
problem.

The small versions of the images which are supposedly in the temp directory
(here is the path for one of my thumbnail images as reported in the Picture
Properties dialog:
file:///C:/DOCUME~1/GL/LOCALS~1/Temp/FrontPageTempDir/angels2_small.jpg )
are not listed under the name shown in this path (e.g., angels2) --
everything in that directory has a name beginning with "wpe", making it
impossible to tell which image is which.

Hopefully, there is some other recommendation for getting the usual Save
Embedded Files dialog to appear....

Thanks,

Or you can drag and drop the image into your current open FP web.
