AHA!!!! I have discovered the potential issue!!! Read on please!

First to answer Gilles, for me I tried to simplify the recreation...

I edited a RAW file and saved changes (to JPG), then added that JPG to BQM. I
just ran one tool (resize - default medium 800px). Still same, digikam says
everything went good, and in preview pane there is no image, only generic icon
with 0B size.

So I noticed Jon has an issue with png, and I with jpg. I never had this
problem before. But I noticed since I started working with RAW I changed some
preferences to accomodate such as "checkmark on- Read from Side Car
file"...ever since I did this, if I try to open any file directly from digikam
in gimp, gimp will give errors regarding thumbnail, etc everytime.

Now, so this time in BQM I tried using a RAW file instead of JPG and it works
correctly! It does not affect RAW.

Next, from my comment about the Side Car preference, I "disable- read from Side
Car", and now try again with JPG, and IT WORKS!

:) I wonder/hope this helps you, Gilles to find the problem.

Let me know if you need any more information, or more testing from me.
Thank you for your hard work! Very much appreciated.

P.S. Jon, try that, check your preferences and turn off all Side Car file
stuff. See if that works.
