Default Re: Need help configuring "Best Sellers" module to call thumbnail images via filesystem!

Hi Mcitde,

I think the problem is different though. All of my images are currently store in the filesystem already. They are showing up just fine and I can see them. However, the codes in the "Best Sellers" and "Recommended Products" are calling these images via the database using the "image.php" file instead of directly via the filesystem.

For example these two links below are pointing to the same exact image. However, the first link is called "image.php" file. And the second link is directly using the file system.

Via "image.php" file = http://www.mvpautoparts.com/image.php?type=T&id=17036
Directly via filesystem = http://www.mvpautoparts.com/images/T/DGPV001W35Small.jpg

There is a huge difference in term of speed. It is much quicker via the filesystem. This gets magnified when it is trying to call several images, one after another consecutively.
