It says - Image Handler 2.0 for Zen-Cart v1.3.x

I got it from the website. It's clearly a revision or two behind.

Thanks for the response. The Readme files says:

"The folders
you need to upload to your server are the following.

* admin
* bmz_cache
* images
* includes"

Do I upload them to the main landing page (when I initially connect via FTP). Or do I create a new directory, and place them in there?

1) Before adding or making changes to your site, "Back It Up"!

2) Image Handler files, open "includes" -->"templates" and rename the folder "template custom" to the name of the template you are using.
2-A) If your using template overrides you need to check to be sure your not going to overwrite your custom changes.

3) FTP, if you can see on your site, "admin", "images" and "includes" your at the right place. Just upload the the Image Handler folders and follow the rest of the instructions.

The Hoover Image is part of IH2 Right?

What I was looking for is how I can get the hoover image to work over my attribute sample images.

There is another mod that work with attribute images.
Check in the downloads area.

I will probably come back to it later. I thought I was out of luck, and now a little gun shy.

Being an older revision would help explain some install issues.

This is the mod I was thinking about when I posted earlier.

Thank you for the info.
Looks like a nice mode that I might also have use for.

Would it be possible/useful to incorporate the manufacturers name and/or product name into the filenames IH generates within the bmz_cache directory? I'm asking because I was wondering if this could have an affect with regard to SEO.

Maybe if IH could rewrite a path like
bmz_cache/d/d8418ec3b6e231502512ada44ec5ed62.image.135x89.JPG
to (for example)
bmz_cache/d/d8418ec3b6e231502512ada44ec5ed62.microsoft.image.135x89.JPG
or
bmz_cache/d/d8418ec3b6e231502512ada44ec5ed62.microsoft.vista.image.135x89.JPG
searchengines would pick up on this and perhaps reward us with a higher ranking.

Not sure if this could work (or even backfire) but is there someone out there who has already tried this and is willing to share his or her experiences with us (and perhaps some coding on how to do this)?

Oh, ok. I have that installed.
But the thing is that I like the hoover image better, Because it forces the image to be larger instead of a click.

I have tried to get "Click To Enlarge" to appear under the image, But I cant figure out how to do that.

Click Options to see what I mean.
Those option images are just to small.
