Like Brian said hop in to the Nginx Drupal group. I would say that you
seem to miss a location with a fallback to Drupal so that the images
are (re)generated if they don't exist.

A rule like Brian indicated is what it takes. You can see my config
here https://github.com/perusio/drupal-with-nginx that contemplates
drupal 7 or others at the top of the group page:
http://groups.drupal.org/nginx

In general the drupal group is the place to be for Nginx and Drupal
related issues.
