I doubt that IH4 will solve the issue.. It sounds to me like the issue is with your source files.. If you are "creating" these images within Photoshop something in this process is creating a file that is corrupted/damaged. In any case the issue is not Image Handler, but something to do with your source images..Quote:

I'll do some more testing to figure out whats causing this problem.
Since this is not a commonly reported issue, it's more likely that the issue is specific to your server (again NOT an IH3 issue)..Quote:

I'd do that first and see if your server is chewing up the images. I am not saying that it is but it would be a good idea to prove to yourself that it is not.
I'd guess that just upgrading to IH4 is not going to make a whole lot of difference because I do not believe ( not 100% sure here ) that the code that actually does the scaling has not been changed for a while. Bits around that core have been altered, but not that core - I believe.
Sorry not to be of more help than that but as Diva says this is not a widely reported issue.
Hi,
I have followed the first four steps of the readme installation instruction.
The next step where I should copy the files from "1_Install_Files" to my store i have two queries:
1. The site is live so "my store" would mean "public_html" folder, right ?
2. The public_html folder has a folder called images, so when I tried to copy the folders i got a prompt saying images folder already exists.. should i replace the old folder? It has lots of images of the products i sell. Will they all be gone?
Apologies for the naive question but if I overwrite the images folder where will IH3 get the images to work on?
Thanks
sorry I hop a problem with image handler ... how do I make it appear on facebook preview the product and additional pictures? I'm going crazy: (
Post this question on the Facebook module support thread.. IH4 is meant to manage product and category images.. I have no idea how your Facebook module works..Quote:

images/large/its contents go into your store folder/images/large folder and so forth.
If that is not what you meant sorry.
This is NOT true.. you will NOT wipe out the contents of the folder.. The prompt is because it recognizes that you are copying over a folder of the same name.. Saying yes will NOT wipe out the CONTENTS of the folder.. You will simply upload the content that does not already exist in the folder.. Test it out for yourself to confirm what I am saying..Quote:
