Thanks for your compliments! I'm looking forward to your (and others) feedback and wishes for future releases.
My PayPal details (email address) are in the image_manager.txt file, included in the package, right at the top.
Best regards,

I got changed over to the new IM and all went well. I also made use of the FF macro which really help with generating the med/lrg images and resizing the small image for all my existing images.
Your taking a wish list? Ok, I'll add mine
It would be really great to have extra "slots" on the product listing page for uploading the additional images when creating a listing, but that would probably mean editing core files.
and a "hover to enlarge" feature for images (centerboxes and sidebox images).
Thanks for the great mod!
I love how it saves images to .bak so you still have your original image. But Some PCI scans fail store's which have .txt and .bak files on the server. Is there a possible way to have the next version of IM save the .bak files into a dedicated folder on the server? For example, we can create a folder via FTP and in the IM admin we could specify what folder (eg /images/bakimages) to have our .bak files saved to. This would allow us to save/remove the .bak file in one go via FTP... Just a thought?
Like the effect built into IH2? Oh god no! please NO! I loath that IH2 image effect, It's crap and annoying. There are other Ajax mods on and off site that do it better!
have donated, but paypal have sent via 'e-cheque'? which wont reach you for 5 working days. Sorry, don't know why it did that.
You are right, the upload link as well as the hover will require modification of core files, which actually is not my intention (so far). You may want to look for other addons providing better image display, for instance with lightbox.
I do see a third wish here: multiple file fix, which is what you do with the macros now. This definitely is a candidate for the 1.6 release.
This shouldn't be a big problem to change. The only thing that can happen is that images have the same name but reside in different folders. If their bak files are moved to one container, it will cause a conflict. The easiest way would be to take deletion of the already present bak file for granted.
As you can read, I have no intention to provide this with IM.
Thanks!!!! And of course it's no problems to wait a few days ;-)
Hi,
I just started to play and install IM1.5. Great updates btw but I seem to have run into a little problem.
On a test site with IM1.4 installed, when i run the SQL via ADMIN>TOOLS>SQL Query Executor the following is returned.
************
403 error
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /test/admin1/sqlpatch.php on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
************
I get the above regardless of what SQL query run.
I tested this with a clean install of Zen Cart. Before I install Image Manager I can use the built in SQL Query Executor to run any SQL statement OK. But once I have installed Image Manager, the SQL Query Executor stops working and returns the above 403 error.
This is not a massive problem though, as I can still run SQL scripts from phpMyAdmin or by using the Zen Cart 'upload file' facility. It is just the method of copy and pasting the SQL which fails.
Please advise
Thanks
p.s. you should have your donation by Wednesday. I think this is because we are in different countries as this happened last time I donated to someone outside the UK.
Hi,
Were you able to run the Image Manager SQL-patch? Or did it happen before that and after installation of the files?

Hi, i was unable to run the SQL patch for upgrading 1.4 to 1.5 via copy and pasting. But i was able to run the 1.4 to 1.5 upgrade patch by using the 'upload file' feature.
Thinking it might be caused by a number of problems i started to test. I created a clean install of zen cart with no other add-ons installed. I ran a few SQL patches via copy and pasting and there were no problem. I then installed IM1.4 and ran the SQL for the install.sql via copy and paste and it worked with no problems. I then tried to run the 1.4 to 1.5 upgrade patch and the same 403 error when copy and pasting.
I then created another clean ZC test site, ran a few SQL patches via copy and paste with no problems. Installed IM.15 and ran install SQL via copy and paste with no problems. I then ran another (general) SQL patch via copy and paste and it failed.
From what I can gather, (for me) once IM is istalled, I am unable to run any SQL patches via copy and pasting.
It' over my head as to why? Cheers for looking into this.
Can you try to run the uninstall script, or remove the IM-configs with phpadmin? And then see what happens?
Hi, nope.. tried again with 3 clean zencart sites.
Runing
DELETE FROM admin WHERE admin_name = 'Admin';# MySQL returned an empty result set (i.e. zero rows).
INSERT INTO admin (admin_name, admin_email, admin_pass, admin_level) VALUES ('Admin', 'admin@localhost', '351683ea4e19efe34874b501fdbf9792:9b', 1);# 1 row(s) affected.
as a test.
This works Ok before I install Image Manager. But once i install Image Manager i cannot run any SQL statements. A 403 permission error is justs returned. With exception of the IM uninstall SQL. That works fine. However once I have ran the uninstall SQL I am unable to run any SQL fron ZC admin at all. Even via file upload.
Then the only way i can get SQL patches to work is via phpMyAdmin
