Since the thumbnail URL is provided as part of the info in the product array, all that has to be done is pass that to the image mod.

Thank you for the responce.
One more quick question, can you have a seperate product and thumb image if you want or do they all have to be based off the detailed image?

Thanks

That ability is not built in. It is meant to be at the bottom of the image. I will have to see what it would take to put it somewhere else.

OK, be much better if you could position the watermark in the centre of the image.

At the bottom, competitors could copy and crop the images, easily removing the watermark.

Just trying to figure this stuff out bro....

I love the way this mod seems to work, I just want to be certain it keeps all images the same level so all look uniform and on same level in categories and subcats.

As for why I have no detailed image option, well um, im nuub and have no fricken idea....

Image management within X-Cart will stay the same. You can have an image loading in the thumbnail slot, the product image slot, detail images, variant images... this mod will work with them all.

Hi,
I have been using this mod for a while now on 3 sites, seems to work really well APART from the positioning of the watermark, I have asked before about this but never got a final reply.

Is it something that can be done easily or is it a re-write?

Would make a good mod into a GREAT mod!!

Thanks

Tony

Has anyone got this working with product configurator images? I got this installed a couple of years ago but was not using configurator at the time....Dan

Hello, this mod was just installed by them yesterday. I like it, but shouldnt it be saying under product images , click here...or something to let people know that it can be zoomed.

If so, mines not....

Thanks

If a client uploads product images with differenet vertical height, when you role over each one the image swap effect results in the viewer being able to see the original image underneath if it is taller than the new rolllover thumbnail.

see this page for an example:
http://frontiermodelscouk.pre-dns-change.com/Hotwheels-Barris-BATMOBILE-1960s-Batman-TV-Version-L7130-p-17431.html

Rollover the thumbnail images & see what I mean.

does any body know how to fix this? eg I don't ant to see the bottom image on thumnail rollover.

Thanks in advance

Also, this mod used to have a very nice animated gallery transition effect - it's frankly not as good withut this feature. I asked telafirma if they were going to address this.... was told they were looking into it. Would be nice to have it back again.
