Thanks Leon,
Sure enough I missed the checkbox. Now my change-the-name-of-the-file test works. But when I view the code I still see that the images are being read by the image.php file.
i.e.
<img src="../image.php?productid=16142"Б─╕..
According to what IБ─≥ve read that file really slows the whole site down. Is that true? Is there a way to bypass it? What exactly does it do? I feel like my site is crawling.
I really appreciate the help.
