Hi,
I've started to use a .mac account for easy publishing of pics via iPhoto:
1.Select pictures in iPhoto and press "homepage" button
2. A new window opens (publish-window) showing the hompage-layout with the possibilty to change themes and add text
I've been previously working on my powerbook and it has been working fine. Still does.

Now I'm trying to do the same from a G5 dual 1,8.
When pressing the "homepage-button" in iPhoto the publish-window logs on and opens but it never load the pics.
The page just stay blank white with only the names of the pics stacked in one corner.
The "themes" drawer stays halfway out also completely blank white.

I run the exact same system and config on both macs (10.3.9) and I have tried various fixes like deleting the
<com.apple.iPhoto.plist> but the problem persist.
Anyone have a clue what I can do?

Note 1: The G5 previously copied all user data from the Powerbook during installation of the system, could there be a pref file that needs to be deleted?

Note2: I Installed Tiger but the problem persist, I also trashed everything iPhoto and reinstalled iPhoto 5.0.2 from Dvd a couple of times. Still doesn't work.

Yeeeehaaa!
Found the solution!

"After creating a new user and logging in as the new user, run iPhoto, go to "Share/Homepage" or hit the Homepage icon, and the new themes will download. You do not have to go on to publish, but iPhoto will be fixed. Go back to your original user account, and all will be well."

C'mon Apple, fix this now! There is apperently many people with this problem...
