Hi rjc,
This is great... I'm also a "newbie"...
Have tried to do this... but I keep getting the message...
Warning: fopen(_htm/home/maxtarco/public_html/store/files/master/t_3.jpg): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/maxtarco/public_html/store/admin/images_location.php on line 136
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/maxtarco/public_html/store/admin/images_location.php:136) in /home/maxtarco/public_html/store/include/func.php on line 181
but I'm not sure what this means or what I'm doing wrong.
All my image files (like 8416.jpg) are located in .../store/files/master
Also... I've uploaded my products in a product file with the .jpg file name in the thumbnail field.
Can you help?
thanks,
Aragorn

Josh,
here, is how to do it.
do not use phpMyadmin.
1.- Login into your store admin section.
2.- Make sure you create the folders on your server for the Thumbnails and the Detail Images and giving the proper permission if you have a UNIX server.
3.- Select " Images location"
Product thumbnails
4.- Store images in " File system"
5.- Type the path of your thumbnails (i.e. ../xcart/files/thumbnails)
Detailed product Images
6.- Store images in " File System"
7.- Type the path of your detail images (i.e. ../xcart/files/details)
8.- Select " Submit" buttom
9.- now create a file name " .htaccess"
10.- the htaccess file should have the following line of code
Allow from all
11.- Make sure the file you created does not have any extention if it does rename it.
12.- upload the .htaccess file to both of your folders where your images are.
and that will do it. If you have any question please drop me a line
Kind regards,
Ricky
