My list of figures is empty.
I have in the preamble (I don't know if it's relevant):
\newfloat{figure}{thp}{lop}
\floatname{figure}{Figure}
\begin{document}
...
\listoffigures{figure}{List of Figures}
...
\begin{figure}
\begin{center}
\includegraphics[scale=0.25]{../north_coast.eps}
\caption{Map of the North Coast Region.\label{fig:North Coast Region}}
\end{center}
\end{figure}
\end{document}
figureis a standard float environment, so why define it anew? b) You did compile at least two times, didn't you? c) Always try to provide a compilable example. – lockstep Aug 08 '12 at 18:59centerenvironment inside floats: http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/2651/should-i-use-center-or-centering-for-figures-and-tables – lockstep Aug 08 '12 at 19:04\newfloatand\floatnamedoes, try to delete these lines, compile again and look for the difference. – lockstep Aug 08 '12 at 19:38
