Can someone tell me how to change the size of Detailed Images?

Also, is it possible to have a different size default Product Image for a single category?

Muchas Gracias.

I used Photoshop 7 to do it. Fast and easy and at the end all opu have to do is up-load to the server.

I select the option to create a Web gallery. and you can defyne the size of your thumbnails and the size of your detail Images and they will be store in separate folders for you.

I hope this help.

De nada,
Ricky

Thanks for replying Ricky. I know how to resize images in Photoshop, but my default window size for detailed images is 400x400. Wondering how to change that...

Chris,

As I understand x-cart caltulates that as the pictures are imported. For example my details Images first were 800X600. I did not like them I resize them using phtoshop to 600x480 and x-cart recalated the size of the image detail in the DB.

Kind regards
Ricky

I believe you can change the size by modding a template. Not sure which one off the top of my head

Koning. Thanks. My real problem is that for most of my products, a 225x225 product image and 400x400 detailed image are fine. But now I am adding photography to the site and would like to have this particular category be a different size, say 225x300 for the small shot and 600x800 for the detailed image.

Does anyone know if this is possible, with a template mod or something else?

Chris,

Did you try to import the pictures using the import option on the Admin? It will work fine.

Here is what I did when I created the tab delimited file to import detail pictures 2 of my categories had the path to the pictures pointing to the thumbnails and the rest of them pointing to the correct detail images. Those 2 categories had the thumbnails displaying in the detail picture and the rest of them were correct.

Here is what I did. I had to re-import my products and the clear the DB then I re-import the detail images after I corrected the path now all my images are correct.

Try that and it will work fine.

Kind regards,
Ricky
