Yep.. this is a known issue that has not been resolved.. When there are enough pictures, PHx stops to parse it’s code and that gets just printed on to the page.
Couple things you can try:
1. if you don’t have PHx installed as a plugin, install it.
2. go to PHx plugin configuration and find the "max passes" setting. Increase that value.
3. enable thumbnail paging.
4. do custom templates that do not use PHx.. it’s not necessary to use PHx in them. The default templates are just implemented using PHx so that I could build the various diplay types to the single templates.

Thanks - I did recommendations 1 to 3 which seem to do the trick except I’m still getting a blank page for the Manage Pictures page.
I’ll take a look at custom templates as per suggestion 4 when I get all the images in - just trying to do a quick ’n dirty gallery for the time being - unless you think I need to do this to solve the remaining problem.
Also, would reducing the number of thumbnails displaying on Manage Pictures page (paginating) solve this and how do I do this anyway?
UPDATE: i’ve created a separate page to manage the gallery using the &manage_target parameter and a blank page template which appears to be a temporary fix.
Mostly harmless.
Yea.. unfortunately picture management does not have pagination.. so if that goes wrong, the only thing i see is to create a custom template for the picture management that does not use phx, or uses significantly less at least..

If you get this problem, try increasing pcre.backtrack_limit.
