read the images sticky - quick question

when i add products it gives me the option to load an image and i put that into a directory. then ZC shrinks the image to my specification and has a product image and a large image.

i dont see anywhere where i can separate the two. so i can optiize them.

That's because you have to do it yourself and upload to the folders. The process is automatic if you use Image Handler.

Re: read the images sticky - quick question

I did read that.

I should make my question more specific.

The only option i see is the
Products Image: upload.

I simply upload it to directory and the ZC writes the code to point it at that image in that directory.

I dont see how to tell zencart to look for a big and small image.

If you do all the process correctly you don't have to tell ZC to look for it, YEAH! that code is smart enough to know is there and it will look for it. :smartass:

Re: read the images sticky - quick question

Bj,

the med and large images need to be manually uploaded into the folders name large and small

If you have a 600 x 600 Image it would be imag_LRG.jpg
a 250 x 250 would be imag_MED.jpg

and the 125 x 125 will just be iamg.jpg

you will upload the imag.jpg in the product manager.

then in images/large/( matching folder if there is one ) you will manually upload the image with the LRG extension

the same for MED in the images/medium/(iff needed )

Or you can install the IH2 module and have this all dont dynamically
