Thanks

1. It does not work with the Cart-Lab mod, but it is just a few lines to comment out and delete some files to uninstall this mod.
2. I use the dimension 750x so people with lower resolutions (800 x 600) can watch the images, it gives enough details and the images won't become to heavy to load. 50-150 kb for my detailed images.

I too currently have the 'Detailed Image Pop-up' mod installed on a client site. Can you confirm that I can remove that mod and install this one, and this mod will function as intended? Without the need to upload the detailed images again?

What I have understand and seen with this mod that only new images will be converted. Old images are left as they are. The old images will displayed in a popup, but will not be resized.
Keep as note. These images have to be true .jpg files and not images that are saved as bmp or linked of from other sites. We had a big problem on one of our sites with this one. We had to convert almost all images.
If the images are not true .jpg files it will cause a bunch of error cause the image could not be read properly.
Just my experience with the mod. But its a great mod. Just upload one big image or a big second detailed and you're done.
You may ask TelaFirma himself about this issue.

Does anyone know how to use this mod when importing detailed photos?

Not quite true - images that are smaller than the size that you set in admin will not be sized UP. However, any existing images that need to be scaled down will be.

Nothing new needs to be done with working with Detail images OR Product images. Just upload or import them as usual (only use a larger image than you normally would so that there is a good size image to start with). All functions within X-Cart concerning image management remain the same.

What this means is that when this mod is installed, it functions transparently.

will this mod work with v4.1.0 ?

[TelaFirma]

4.1.0 is not stable and still has many issues. Some of the issues are with image display. Untill that branch is more stable I do not intend on looking to port it over. Too many things may change between now and then.

Can someone please tell me how to increase the image size for the upselling link images on product page.

I have the image mod, though upselling images appear far too jagged!!

Thanks.

[TelaFirma]

Product Upsells by default do not have images. They are just links. Are you using some sort of other mod for upsells?
