Image Handler 2 (for ZC v1.3.8 ONLY) Support

[DarkAngel]

v1.39
IH2

I've been thinking about this for a a while and wanted to ask before messing up my site.

I currently have all of my images in one directory....thousands of images to be exact.

.../Large/Normal/PicName.jpg

.../Large/Normal/PicName2.jpg

.../Large/Normal/PicName3.jpg

etc, etc.

So, I've got lots of different product/manufacture categories and would like to group the pics according to the manufactures.

Possible or not?

Would the following work:
.../Large/Normal/Manufacture1/PicName.jpg
.../Large/Normal/Manufacture1/PicName2.jpg
.../Large/Normal/Manufacture1/PicName3.jpg

.../Large/Normal/Manufacture2/PicName.jpg
.../Large/Normal/Manufacture1563/PicName.jpg
.../Large/Normal/ManufactureABC/PicName56.jpg


Make sense?

personally since you are running 1.3.9h then I would install IH3.

but back to your question..I have my images set up as this:

store/images/promos/vendor folder/pictures in here

with IH you do not and will not need the medium or large fodlers anymore. as long as you let IH know where the image is stored you will only need the main image then the rest will have the same name as the main one with _01.jpg after it...changing the number for each additional image.

you will then be able to get rid of the images you have in the large and medium folders.

hope that makes sense, they would look as this for additional images:

.../images/manufacturers/Manufacture2/PicName.jpg
.../images/manufacturers/Manufacture2/PicName_01.jpg
.../images/manufacturers/Manufacture2/PicName_02.jpg


then the same for each manufacturer...and if there is only one image for each manufacturer then just sorting them into each folder for them is fine..just remember to name the image as close as the product so you don't accidently overwrite the other one.
