Is it only one image, or all images?

If it's only one image, is it a very large file?
Is it saved as a progressive JPG?
what happens when you visit this URL, do you see an error message?
http://yourwiki.com/w/thumb.php?f=test.jpg&w=200
After doing that, try purging the image page. (edit it and change the
URL from &action=edit to &action=purge , then refresh on that URL)

if you still have problems after all these steps, then I'm stumped. :)

HTH,
Brianna
