Hi,
1.) Do the settings for creating 'Additional Thumbnails'
backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Control Center --> Options --> Thumbnails --> Thumbnail Generation Settings
--> Enable Thumbnails Generation=Yes
--> Crop Thumbnails=None
--> Additional Thumbnails=Medium and small thumbnails
Save & Close

2.) Create the 'Additional Thumbnails'
backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Images

3.) Do the settings for 'Mosaic Effect'
backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Control Center --> Options --> Categories View --> Categories View Settings --> Mosaic Effect (CategoriesView)=Yes
Save & Close

Kind regards,
Benno

If you have done the settings for creating 'Additional Thumbnails' (Step 1), you don't need to click the recreate Thumbnails button. Go to backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Images and the creation of the 'Additional Thumbnails' should start (without klicking any button).

Kind regards,
Benno

If your site is online and if you like, you can send me your login details via PM.

You're welcome!

No the reason why 'Mosaic Effect' wasn't displayed on your site was:
backend --> Components --> Phoca Gallery --> Control Panel --> Options --> Categories View --> Categories View - Legacy Settings --> Displaying Style=(there should be set 'Not used') if you want to use Mosaic Effect.

Kind regards,
