$wgUseImageResize is set to true, which means dynamic server-side image 
resizing of thumbnails should be enabled. As far as I can tell, everything 
*should* be setup for image-resizing/ thumbnail-generation. Brion, you're 
describing what is currently happening -- the server sends the url of the 
"thumbnail" (which is really the url of the original image), and then the 
browser is scaling it to fit. I'd rather not send 1Mb files across the wire 
when I can send a 10Kb thumbnail. I'll keep working on it, thanks for the help 
gurus. 

Btw, here's Special:Vesion: 
MediaWiki       1.18.2 (r19114)
PHP                     5.3.3 (apache2handler)
MySQL                   5.0.77
Linux                   2.6.18-274.17.1.el5

By any chance do you not have image scaling enabled? It might well be giving 
you the original image and scaling client-side.
