Re: Featured items or Special Items REFUSE to display on main / home page

If your image sizes are currently set to those defaults, the defaults aren't being used by Zen Cart, suggesting that somebody has hacked the code to change them to be width = 53 for the new products and width=42 for the featured.

The reason that the new images are showing larger than that is because of this little piece of CSS lurking at around line 1000 of your stylesheet

.centerBoxContentsNew img{
width:135px;
height:auto;
}which them makes them bigger again.

Ajeh's right about the need to optimise your image file sizes too. They're huge and slow to load even on a faster internet connection.
