This mod was specifically designed for wig site but I think it has a lot more applications than just wigs.
I have been using the mod for some time now and thought some others might be interested as it is a fairly complex piece of coding - the best way to describe it is to show some images with point commentary:
The customer side
1. the customer selects a colour swatch:

2. the system confirms the selection:

3. the system shows the selection at the checkout:

The admin side
1. a new link is added to admin

2. there is a choice of managing the colours or the coloursets
the idea being that the colours are selected which relate to the given product:

this is done by browsing for the image in the standard xcart way (not shown)
3. the colours are matched to the particular product:

this is a live site so please no test orders - thanks
Anyone interested in the mod feel free to pm me.
