Run it a second time and its filled in all the missing ones it failed to get first time around. There are some with gaps because theres no proper attachment and three now with an image marker but no image. Those are PDF links - doh ! So ill have to check for that and put up a generic PDF image instead for those. Might have to look for zips too. Anyway - if any CL feels like making an image from whatever they have posted and uploading them for any of the missing ones then that would get caught by it next time I believe.
Edit -- hah I have just realized its putting in extra entries for me because of this thread. Hmmm, must add something to check the title for a 'sticky' and ignore... Bugs are always for the things you never think of in a million years. Someone once said something like - however weird you can dream it up reality will go further. I heard another paraphrase similar to that with real user interaction of any program you write too. They _will_ break it in ways you would not possibly have imagined.

Yeah been looking at the code. It gets the forum and lists all the entries and works out how many pages there are. Then it gets all in page1 then all in page 2 etc and builds up all the threads. Well the stickies are always there for any page number so its adding them in several times depending on how many pages there are. So I have adjusted the script to ignore all stickies since they are unlikely to be maps. I'll run it again in a mo but ill fix up the PDF image first.
It isn't showing the latest version for this map. Do I just add a ###WIP### tag to it or what?

You need to add the map as a full attachment not a link to another site. It has to display as an attachment image. And if the proper image is not the first image then you need to put:
### Latest WIP ###
at the end of the text bit of your post so that the attached image is just under it.
Oh and then you have to wait until I run the script again which takes a while so I dont do it all that often. I think in your case people will get the general idea from the first thumb and click in and see the latest image if they want it. It would be nice to fix up those thumbs that are completely wrong or missing however but thats a CL job cos I cant edit all the threads.
Ok it's been updated (and I didn't mean the link picture I meant the latest picture on the thread).

Ok ill run it again shortly. It canes the site a bit cos it has to fetch all the threads to see if they have changed and all the new images. When I run the challenge thumbs ill do a complete index rebuild too.
Here is a replacement image to throw in for the "No Image" placeholder, using the site font, colour, and symbol.
