The Image derivatives (preview, thumbnail) are not created with the import function. A call to "_image_build_derivatives" -> $node->images = _image_build_derivatives($node, FALSE); is needed in "image_insert", after the call to "_image_insert".
It's not a big deal, the derivatives are created when the image is loaded the first time. But if you have a Gallery with many images, building the derivatives in combination with the import is more user friendly.

drewish commentedthat's actually by design because the derivatives would be created in the import folder and to avoid timeouts. I think fixing it would be good but take some larger changes.
Comment #2
helpermedia commentedThanks for the fast response. Avoiding timeouts sounds reasonable, but I don't think that the derivatives would be created in the import folder, the original image is already moved in "_image_insert" (has a call to "file_move").
Comment #3
drewish commentedI'd have to dig into the commit log to find the issue but there was something to that effect that caused me to remove the derivative creation on import.
