How do we modify 2nd & 3rd additional image size

I may ahve missunderstood how to edit the image sizes of the 2nd and 3rd additional images.

I am under the impression that if I do the following, the image size of the 3rd one will show at the full size.

/images/flower.jpg
/images/flower_1.jpg
/images/flower_2.LRG.jpg

I tried doing this but the 3rd image dissapeared from the product page.

/images/flower.jpg
/images/flower_1.jpg
/images/large/flower_2.LRG.jpg

Re: How do we modify 2nd & 3rd additional image size

All you need do is build the images to the size you want them to display when enlarged.

So, if you want the images to all be 250px X 350px, then create them to be these dimensions in the first place.

Also, the naming convention you are using will not be understood by ZC. You can't call images xxxx.LRG.jpg .

If you install Image Handler2 then you will have a feature that manages all your images and you will not have to have _LRG or _MED definitions - just one single image. IH2 will do the rest for you.

Hi schoolboy, thanks for the info.

We will give Handler2 a try.

Cheers.

Re: How do we modify 2nd & 3rd additional image size

Sorry to be persistent, this must have something to do with my settings.

I have installed Handler2 which seems to be a good addition. I have to remember to donate a few dollars to the guy.

Either way, I installed Handler2 but my additional (/images/flower_2.LRG.jpg) still comes out small and not it's original size.

Is there something i missed?

Cheers

Re: How do we modify 2nd & 3rd additional image size

Also I should add

When I say that /images/large/flower_2.LRG.jpg is still small and not its original size.

I mean this in the products page. When i click onto /images/large/flower_2.LRG.jpg it then expands to its original size.

But I would like it to be its original size on the products page.

Please use the proper naming conventions:

flower_2.LRG.jpg

... is incorrect naming (you CANNOT have two "full stops" in the name).

Go to the following tutorial:
