Help with Larger Images (Button)

Hi,

When i click on the larger image button on my product page the image comes up way to big which means you have to minimize the page every time you want to look at a larger image of a item is there a way i can change something to make it smaller when my customers click on larger image?

any help would be great thankyou

The larger image defaults to the actual image size
Use your image editor and size the image to be no larger than what you want

Kobras way is the best, definitely don't upload images that are larger than you need.

However, if you have loads of them already uploaded then you can install IMAGE HANDLER mod on your site and set the maximum dimensions to use when displaying the images.

what is a good image editor?

the ones i have are

Corel Draw
Paint
Adobe Fireworks

are they any good?

Another versatile image editor is the GIMP http://www.gimp.org
