Hi.
did you make sure to remove the space after { mbox: ? so it looks like this: {mbox: etc ?

The code does not work unless you remove the space.

Hello

A quick look and I see this:

If you look closely at the path to your thumb: there is missing i in images.. vthumb=mages/stories...etc

check also the c aption, insted of caption

You did not define the opening up window in the code.
