Help! No Icons or Previews!

I went from FD v2.11 to 2.14 recently and lost the ability to get previews and icons. I downgraded, wiped the install and reinstalled. I disabled all the other extensions I have. I reinstalled firefox, java, restarted my computer.
This is what it gives me now:

or

I don't know if this helps or not, but the option to "use java for image scaling" or whatever is greyed out.
I really like this extension, it lets me clear up bookmark bar space. i don't want to go back to using the bookmark bar :(

What happens if you hit the Firefox refresh page button while in Fast Dial 2.14 ?
Do any cells appear ?

Shame.

Mmm
This sounds bad.
I had a similar problem and just started again in a new profile.

Tell me what happens when you simply load 2.11 onto your present setup, does it come to life ?

Submitted by snefsky on Fri, 11/07/2008 - 16:34sadly no. I'll just delete this profile and make a new one i guess.

Sounds like maybe it is the only thing to do.
If you do load 2.14 into a new Profile, please read this:

Please let us know how you get on.

Submitted by snefsky on Fri, 11/07/2008 - 16:59Tried it, went through your steps, and I still either get an infinitly long "loading" image or what appears to be an error image (blank with a small ripped piece of a paper in upper left).
Looks like i'll just be uninstalling this one and moving on. Maybe in a future release it will fix whatever is causing it not to generate images.

What is happening ?
You should not be getting this.
You are now in a New Profile loading 2.14 into 3.0.3 ?
Are you downloading the 2.14 from this site ?
There are no pictures to load.
Did you set up the root as in the description.
Otherwise there is a blank screen.
Have you a picture ?
