On product info pages, it is always a good idea to make the main product image as large as possible (about 65% of the size of the image that renders in the LARGE IMAGE popup window - which should at least be 750 pixels deep). Similarly, additional image thumbs should be quite big too.
If users need more "sophisticated" functions, such as hover-zoom, and click-zoom, then there are some very nice systems at magictoolbox. True, these are commercial offerings, but they are dirt-cheap.
I hasten to add, we have no commercial interest in magictoolbox. We just like their tools.
But this mod is a great stand-by, and if the user makes sure to use GOOD pics, at good sizes, it actually works very nicely. Thanks D, for a valuable add-on!
