 Translation of the string ".thumbnail" (part of the name of thumbnail
 picture) may cause problems (no thumbnails showing) when multibite
 character used in the translation. I spotted it in with slovak translation
 and database converted to UTF-8. I recommend this ".thumbnail" string not
 to be translatable or to filter multibite characters in the name of the
 thumbnail file in the process of their creation.

 Database in latin1 cause problems with some characters in slovak language,
 so I ever have export, convert all wrong chars to UTF-8, change all
 strings latin1 to utf8 and ad a line
 {{{
 mysql_query("set names utf8",$this->dbh);
 }}}
 to wp-db.php on line 74 to tell my database is in uft8.
