More product images and zoom possibility

Hi,

I am a new Zen-Cart user after trying Magento :blush:

Magento is really too complicated to set up a webshop,this will take ages,but the good thing of Magento is the functionality.

I really like to way to add more product images,this is standard in Magento,and with Zen-Cart you can only add 1 image.
How can I make it possible to add more product images from the admin?

Another thing is the image zoom within Magento,this is really nice,is this also possible with Zen-Cart?

In the past I used a lightbox addon,but I hate if you go with your mouse over an image a popup shows up.

I really hope someone can pint me into the right direction,and I hope this is all possible with Magento :smile:

Regards,
Richard

Not sure what you mean by 'image zoom' but Zencart has a 'larger image' link on the product info page which will pop up a larger image, if available.

Best advice I can offer is to install a test Zencart site, including the sample data, and take a look at what's available.

I think multiple product images and image zoom feature must be implemented into ZC core itself, instead of doing it via custom hacks/or addons, which is diffucult - as many users want this handy options.
