As I stated before, nobody has the right to give uninvited suggestions to me, in the way of patronizing advice on the way I conduct myself.
Please give your advice and/or suggestions to people who would like to receive them, I have no use of them.
If you find that my writings are holy-than-thou (or whatever cliche way you find of calling them), just ignore them.
Keep your impressions to yourself, nobody is interested in them.

Perhaps the newer version, posted by the illustrious Mr. Ladywig.com, is more solid than the one I downloaded. I won't be finding out out of general principle.
My my my.. it's gotten hot in here.. :smile: Hope you all don't mind a lady interjecting here?? I just wanted to try and clear the air a little..
IMO there are only two versions of IH2 that you should consider installing:

Hopefully one of these versions is the one you are now using. They are stable and should install pretty much "out the box". The latest version (Ver 2.0 rev 7) is a meaner leaner version that removes some of the "leftover" files from the original release of IH2 that are totally not needed for IH2 to run. (For example the "shoppad" folder -- turns out you can delete that folder in it's entirety from ALL prior versions). The readme is much improved (if I do say so myself!:laugh:) and clarifies the app and it's purpose a little more clearly. Ver 2.0 rev 7 also includes some of the improvements that have been posted here in this thread by community contributors including:
- The improved version of bmz_image_handler.class.php
- An improved version of jscript_imagehover.js.
Ver 2.0 rev 7 of IH2 is based on the Jan 16 2009 version of IH2 authored by yellow1912. So with regards to the bolded part of your post (above), my suggestion is that regardless of whatever beef you and ckosloff have, Ver 2.0 rev 7 is a good version for you to install and you should give it some consideration.. :smile:
The problematic version of IH2 IMO is this one:

IMO, NO ONE should be using this version, and in particular if you are running a lightbox contribution , you should definitely NOT install this version of IH2.
In short this version contains the now INFAMOUS "Optional Extras" folder. IMO, the purpose of these files was not very well documented. The purpose of these files as it turns out was to modify the default behavior of the main product image.
However, in testing, some of us discovered that this "new" functionality disabled some lightbox contributions functionality (specifically the Zen Lightbox and Fual Lightbox add-ons). In short the "Optional Extras" files would prevent your lightbox from working with the main product image.
Sure there's language in the documentation for that version that seems to outline all the "fixes", but it's not necessarily written in "laymen" terms. Plus the documentation it fails to notify the user that these changes will likely "break" your lightbox contributions. (this is likely because the author did not use or even test his "fixes" with any lightbox contribution)
Okay.. I'm all done now.. You may resume your regular programming..:smile:
Re: Image Handler 2 Support
Thanks for pulling this discussion back to Image Handler. And thank you for your very informative post. This thread, clearly, was in desperate need of a woman's touch. :smile:

Now this is really strange.
If you read the readme for rev 7 you will notice that my friend DivaVocals is precisely the same person who gave it its final form.
So what she is doing in this post is basically repeating the same concepts that already are in the readme.
If the post is informative now, why wasn't it informative then?
And this is the same guy who said that my suggestion to read instructions was worthless.
Can anybody make sense out of this?

Re: Image Handler 2 Support
I have a problem with my additional images which are not shown up after IH2 is enabled. Since I had edited the file "includes/modules/additional_images", I haven't uploaded that file included in IH2 Folder. I found whenever I set "IH Resize Images" to "no", the additional images appear again but then no zooming effects for those thumbnail images on products listing pages.
So I'm wondering whether it is possible that I disenable the IH effects on additional images within product-info pages while larger images will still pop up when hovering on those small images on product listing pages.
Or is there any way to let my additional images show up again without changes or only simple changes to the file "includes/modules/additional_images"?
Any suggestion or advice will be highly appreciated!! Thank you!!

If you love your friend Tony so much that you feel compelled to flood the thread continuously, just leave your wife and daughter.
Maybe in your blurred mind, the quote in which he insults Berezin also has to do with Camelot hosting.
And screaming at customers who cancel is not something personal, right?
Do us all a favor and quit picking on me, finocchio, just join your lover boy and be happy.
