Hmmm...that's about what I figured you would have to do, I guess I just didn't see it as being all that complicated, especially since there are only certain templates (which you know ahead of time, unless somebody has hacked the mod into other places) that actually make calls to the plugin and only a few different config parameters that impact the generated images. Admittedly, I don't know the guts of the code and may be overlooking something that complicates matters. Not a big deal, though, just a thought.

Yeah, I definitely wouldn't want that. A routine that lists which ones are not used would be useful, but not so much a routine that just deletes all images.

Right--you told me this before, and that's exactly what I did, but I still do not get image thumbs below the product image unless there is also a Detailed Image specified for that product.

Again, that's exactly what I did.

There is no way around this since they are the same image.

I understand that, but why can't the code easily figure out that these are the same image and only use one of them in the pop-up image list? If, for some reason that I am not grasping, the code can't figure that out to get rid of the redundancy in the pop-up dialog, I would prefer to never have a pop-up from the product image, but only from the thumbnail...and, of course (as discussed previously), I wish the thumbnail would always display, even in the absence of a Detailed Image being defined in X-Cart.

Thanks for your time! I hope that was clear, but let me know if you don't understand what I'm saying here.
