Why doesn't auto thumbnail work with web parts?

I have a data view that lists fields from an access database table. The
fields I'm intested in are hyperlinks to images store din a picture library
on my sharpeoint site. I have right-clicked on these hyperlinks in frontpage
and selected format as a picture.

These are, however, very large pictures and I would like them to appear as
thumbnails. So here is where I right-click on one of them and select
auto-thumbnail. This is basically what I want.

The problem with this is that this data view gets its data filtered by
another data view, and therefore this data view changes images based on other
selections, but when I auto thumbnailed my image, it auto-thumbnailed both
test images as the same image, not the two seperate pictures I had before I
auto-thumbnailed them. Changing the properties or hyperlink on one image
seem to affect the rest of the images. I have two hyperlinked pictures in
the database right now, and in deisgn view in frontpage I now see both
thumbnailed images with the same image, and same hyperlink.

How can I auto-thumbnail and not have only one thumbnail?
When i chose other selections in the other data views I want the thumbnail
image to change. The web part connection worked fine before I chose the
auto-thumbnail option and it still looks properly configured. Any ideas?
