The best place to request help with nginx configuration for Drupal is
the nginx group at groups.drupal.org. http://groups.drupal.org/nginx

There are some sample configs linked at the top of that page, though
some of those are for Drupal6 and not Drupal7.

In Drupal7, images in the /styles directory have to send their 404s to
Drupal for creation of alternate images, just like images in /imagecache
for Drupal6.

Something like:

  location ~ ^.*/files\/styles\/.*$ {
    access_log      off;
    expires         45d;
    error_page 404 @drupal;
  }

If you want to post your full config over at groups.drupal.org/nginx
folks will be happy to help.
