How do I use small vs large Images?

I previously setup some products with attributes, added images for each attribute and they show nice an neat, not too large on the product page (http://livingtowers.com/coopstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=11&products_id=73). When I look at the attribute the image name is ap_01_sml.jpg. I am adding another product and I want to do the same thing but the image is large. I cannot remember how I set it up to put the suffix on the filename and make the file smaller. I do have Image Handler 4 installed but that doesn't say anything about a sml suffix.

Does anyone know how I may have set this up? I don't think I resized each of the files, besides, they are not even on the server in the path specified in attributes manager.

Re: How do I use small vs large Images?

With IH4 you do not need to worry about SML MED LRG... IH4 creates cached thumbs of the MAIN image - so just load up ONE large image to the images folder.

You can get rid of _MED and _LRG images.

Re: How do I use small vs large Images?

Yeah, that's what I read last night when I was re reading upon the mod. I just don't know where it is getting the _sml.jpgs from as they do not exist in the folders on the server. Do you see what I mean though? On the page above the images show a nice size and do not take up the whole screen like they do when I am adding images on another product with attributes. It was a month or so ago and I don't remember what/how I did it. :(
