Hi Smugmug
Use IE6.0 to go to my gallery:
http://www.streetsofboston.com/gallery/234268
which contains only one picture.
The filmstrip-bar shows the picture's thumbnail (OK) and 5 'missing link' images (red X in a small box).
Also, FireFox did report a whole lot of JavaScript errors! Although, they seem not to interfere with the strip's functionaliy.
Edit: I refreshed my browser (Ctrl+Shift+Refresh), and JavaScript error seem to have disappeared... I'll post them in this thread if i find them again.

I can't grasp the notion of time.
When I hear the earth will melt into the sun,
in two billion years,
all I can think is:
"Will that be on a Monday?"

of course - with your customization I didn't see the style box so I didn't change the viewing style - ok see it and this is being worked on now, standby for a fix very shortly!

looks for me like in Andy's screenshot on my IE6 on Win2000. Can you post your IE about screen? Mine looks like this:
Maybe it's related to one of your hotfixes or the lack of it. As I had big trouble with filmstrip in IE6 at all and a friend of mine none at all (see new feature thread)

EDIT: Ok, I see it, too - didn't realize where your viewstyle box went...

in one of my galleries that contains only one image.
The "missing images" aren't missing. They were never there to begin with. For the filmstrip script to function as expected, the script (probably - I'm guessing) needs to insert at least 5, and perhaps as many as 7 images in the script's placeholders. If there are less actual images than placeholders, then it can't function as a conveyor belt imaging script.
I would suggest looking into another script (there's lots of these around the net) that would allow a grouping of less than the called for images in the script. Or a script that adapts by placing duplicates of the images in the places for the minimum number. Shy of that, a workaround might be a "fetch dummy images" (i.e., blanks) call if there are less than the required number of actual images available in one's gallery.
