The small image (thumbnail) is 150px wide, and the large image is 467px wide. I am a photographer, and I use my site for customer proofs. I need to let the customer see a large version of the image before they add to cart, so they can make any comments about cropping, color, touch ups, etc. I have about 100 images, give or take, for each customer, so it would take a significant amount of space to upload additional large images for everything, according to the Zen Cart convention, when I already have them uploaded in a separate existing folder.
The only other thing I can think of is to add a fancybox script to the product description that shows a "View larger" link, and when clicked pulls up the image in the relative URL path. But I would have to add that into the product description for each product, or insert it into each line of my import CSV before uploading a batch of products with Easy Populate.
