The problem is that you are trying to use timthumb.php to resize images that are not on your server.

The actual error for the resized images is this:

remote host "ongmat.cz" not allowed TimThumb version : 1.14

The solution is to edit the timthumb.php script and make a change to line 24 (or close to it)

 // external domains that are allowed to be displayed on your website
$allowedSites = array (
        'flickr.com',
        'picasa.com',
        'blogger.com',
        'wordpress.com',
        'img.youtube.com',
);

and add the domain you want to use images from, such as adding ongmat.cz to the array so it looks like this:

  $allowedSites = array (
                'flickr.com',
                'picasa.com',
                'blogger.com',
                'wordpress.com',
                'img.youtube.com',
                'ongmat.cz',
        );

or you can change this option (although not as secure)

define ('ALLOW_EXTERNAL', FALSE);                       // allow external website (override security precaution)

and change FALSE to TRUE

The first 30 lines should look like this:

define ('CACHE_SIZE', 250);                                     // number of files to store before clearing cache
define ('CACHE_CLEAR', 5);                                      // maximum number of files to delete on each cache clear
define ('CACHE_USE', FALSE);                            // use the cache files? (mostly for testing)
define ('VERSION', '1.16');                                     // version number (to force a cache refresh)
define ('DIRECTORY_CACHE', './cache');          // cache directory
define ('DIRECTORY_TEMP', './temp');            // temp directory
define ('MAX_WIDTH', 1000);                                     // maximum image width
define ('MAX_HEIGHT', 1000);                            // maximum image height
define ('ALLOW_EXTERNAL', TRUE);                       // allow external website (override security precaution)

// external domains that are allowed to be displayed on your website
$allowedSites = array (
        'flickr.com',
        'picasa.com',
        'blogger.com',
        'wordpress.com',
        'img.youtube.com',
        'ongmat.cz',
