You can take a look at ravsappliances.com and have a look at the product pages where I have installed zen lightbox.
in the admin>configuration>max settings and image settings...have you set a unified image size in there? I noticed that some of your images are 400x400 or 200x200 then are resized down for the thumbnail you click on...so try making all the image sizes the same in admin. my store has different sizes becasue of our textures and items so I have only one size define in admin either the width or height.


One thing that I am having an issue with is trying to remove the image description from the lightbox affect -
If you mean the additional little pop up that is on the buycheaplcdtvs site I don't even know how it got there...sorry, lightbox doesn't do that so may be the image handler


Do you know of any programme or plugin that I can use which will automatically sort out the image sizes for me? If not I think I will need to remove the images and make sure I upload files of a large dimension to keep a consistency look.
You don't need to remove them, just make the new ones...name them exactly the same then upload them to the same folder you originally have them in for the store and they will overwrite the ones there.

If you have time take a look at this site electronicworldtv. co.uk I really like the way that they have the sideboxes with rounded edges and they have like a 2 color for the background for the sidebox headers. Its split horizontally with a lighter shade towards the top. Just wondering if i can work the css to give rounded side box headers in a similar way.
He looks like he is using a custom template but the headers for the sideboxes are created that way, most likely in photoshop then in the css file are assigned where to appear.


Once again thanks for your time and after i have added the modules would you mind if I PM you as I would like someone work on the site for the product listings which I will not be able to do

Thanks

@fotofx:

make sure you have uploaded the image files to the right folder it looks like they might not be uploaded.

@Daisy:

Hope you get to feeling better, finally got some warm days here and NOW i caught the flu...lol

I took a look and there is no lightbox showing that is for sure. When I view source for the page I do not see it listed near the top of the coding either. Are you sure it is completely installed?

--------------------------------

@guile:

your images are the same size not larger at all so the lightbox would only be showing the exact same size as what is shown.

I do see it listed in the source code but am wondering about your template you are using.

which one is it? its name and are you too sure the files are in the correct places

If any of you want to contact me feel free I can go into the admin and see what is going on and try to help as much as possible. I have helped many install it or beat it up...lol
