the $products_image_directory is defined further up in this file and actually this code has not been changed, so I can only assume that you are either organising your files in a way zen cart has never intended or there is a bug in the zencart core code?

this is how it is defined:

$products_image_directory = str_replace($products_image, '', substr($products_image, strrpos($products_image, '/')));
  if ($products_image_directory != '') {
    $products_image_directory = DIR_WS_IMAGES . str_replace($products_image_directory, '', $products_image) . "/";
  } else {
    $products_image_directory = DIR_WS_IMAGES;
  } 

check you have this code above in your file. as you can see it gets the image directly from the image file location against your product.

so assumably if on the database it is like this:
images/coats/12345.jpg
then the above code will strip this back to just
images/coats/
which defines the image directory. so there is no reason why this shouldnt be working.

I think I see your problem

images/Manufacturer_Name/ImageA.jpg
images/ Manufacturer_Name /ImageA_01.jpg
Medium images:
images/medium/ Manufacturer_Name/ImageA_MED.jpg
images/medium/ Manufacturer_Name/ImageA_01_MED.jpg
Large images:
images/large/ Manufacturer_Name/ImageA_LRG.jpg
images/large/ Manufacturer_Name/ImageA_01_LRG.jpg

should it not be:
images/Manufacturer_Name/ImageA.jpg
images/Manufacturer_Name/ImageA_01.jpg
Medium images:
images/Manufacturer_Name/medium/ImageA_MED.jpg
images/Manufacturer_Name/medium/ImageA_01_MED.jpg
Large images:
images/Manufacturer_Name/large/ImageA_LRG.jpg
images/Manufacturer_Name/large/ImageA_01_LRG.jpg

???

I am trying to get rid of all $products_image_directory and replace it back to DIR_WS_IMAGES as it was (I think originally intended). I will let you know what happens.

From what I have found out so far, the problem is where DIR_WS_IMAGES is replaced with $products_image_directory!

the $products_image_directory is defined further up in this file and actually this code has not been changed, so I can only assume that you are either organising your files in a way zen cart has never intended or there is a bug in the zencart core code?

this is how it is defined:

$products_image_directory = str_replace($products_image, '', substr($products_image, strrpos($products_image, '/')));
  if ($products_image_directory != '') {
    $products_image_directory = DIR_WS_IMAGES . str_replace($products_image_directory, '', $products_image) . "/";
  } else {
    $products_image_directory = DIR_WS_IMAGES;
  } 

check you have this code above in your file. as you can see it gets the image directly from the image file location against your product.

images/coats/12345.jpg
then the above code will strip this back to just
images/coats/
which defines the image directory. so there is no reason why this shouldnt be working.

The highlighted in Red is where the problem is. It should show it as images/medium/coats/ (for medium) or images/large/coats/ (for large) and it doesn't. That's why you get all your small images images/coats/ (Thumbnails) and non of the other, medium or large.

Of-course this matters where you have your directories organized in a certain way, and not when placing all images under, images/, images/medium/ and images/large/.
