Running on a Mac

I recently switched to a 24" iMac. 1. I'm tired of the Windows "issues" 2. I do Apple phone support and like the product, 3. I like the extra screen real-estate of the 24" monitor for the web stuff.

I'm having some issues with the images on http://www.karatjewellers.ca/cart

If I look at them on my windows machine in IE6 they look like what they really are, large images compressed.
So I changed the image dimensions to 0 and 0 in the hopes it would auto-calculate the size. They still don't look right on the PC but on the iMac they look fine in Safari 3.x and Firefox 2.x

I'm not seeing any images anywhere with IE7 or Safari under XP.

0 - 0 is not allowing the image to render in any browser that pays attention to this

Sorry. I decided to take all the imates off and go through the tutorial on setting up the images for Zen-Cart so I'm in the process of getting the small, medium and large images in the correct folders and at the correct sizes. I just can't seem to find a place where I can tell the size of the _MED and _LRG images.

For _MED images: Admin->Configuration->Images --> Product Info - Image Width (and Height)
For _LRG images, presently Zen Cart poses no limitations and does no resizing. Be sure to size your images according to what you want your customers to see.

See, I was looking for something like "Medium Image Width" and "Large Image Width". :-)
So there is no real setting for the _LRG but make sure I don't go past the recommended 480 as per the tutorial if that is how large I want it displayed, is that correct?

Thanks.
This is why I like this program, I print the manual that I bought and look over all the sections and when I can't find what I'm looking for then within minutes have the answer here in the forums.
Are you planning to be in Toronto in April?
