Which thumbnails? The ones on your selling page? Gallery pics? All my listings seem to be showing pics.

It is not only your system.

I am a buyer only and yesterday/last night I was doing quite a few searches for different items, worldwide. On most of the searches I found photos missing both in the initial search results and also in the listings when I opened them.

It was worse than useless continuing to search for any items where a photo was important to see the condition but I was still able to look for new DVDs and other new/packaged items.

I do. It has been going on for ages.

For me it is only the images that display in the selling manager. They seem to be OK when I search for them as a buyer.

About 6-12 months ago some of them displayed negitive view counts as well (the listings with no thumnail), I haven't checked them again and they do seem to sell (slowly)

I have the same problem, but only a few here and there. Is it all of your listings?

I spoke to eBay about it like a year ago and was told "oh the problem is fixed now, but you'll have to recreate the listing"

My thumbnails were missing in SMP and on printed invoices. Occasionally I've had luck with replacing the image, sometimes having to upload a different image and then upload the original one again..

Welcome to Friday, today is maintenance day and you may notice a few interesting "improvements" to your listings and seller experience like (but certainly not limited to):

disappearing images

invisible listings

buyers excluded arbitrarily

site crashes

etc etc etc

It's a circus on Friday much like the one in the film "Meet the Feebles".

With any luck you'll get your thumbs back by next week.

If not then your guess is as good as mine
