Waw. It’s wery nice function. Well done.

Awesome, I am looking forward to this.

Once again, over the top with the cool features! Great job.

Wow, impressive. I love this.

Will it include the ability to upload one large image and then automatically create the other required images? I’m thinking of the functionality that Image Handler provides for Zen Cart.

I love it! Great job.

@Ron:  I’m pretty sure that’s the idea. That’s what the use of the GD library is for.

What I would like to see is automatic watermarking as well, such as what the phpThumb() script does, but that will likely be a custom modification provided by the community.

@i960 - We are going to have an automatic watermarking released in our next release.

Thanks

This looks really good!  I was wondering if the back-end will also control the way images are resized (for example: setting the x and y size of the small and main image)?

@Ross - it is supposed to be controlled from the design templates using helpers, as image sizes most probably should depend on design.

Thank you,
Michael

Yoav, that’s very good news!  I know watermarking isn’t that difficult to do so I would have been fine adding it myself, but that’s one more thing I can check off my to-do list.

It is a good option, but maybe it is a idea to automatically let Magento resize the pictures like ePages does. That’s very handy and you only need to opload 1 file.

@dfo - This is available in the next release.

Cool! It’s getting better and better! Wow.

Hey - Does anyone know what software is being used for this screencast?

@RoyRubin - swheat - thanks!

What I would really like to have is a feature for using images with configurable products

Just one example:
You have a shop and sell clothes.
You have a shirt, which has 3 different color-schemes
FireRed/Blue/Green
White/Purple/Gray
Fire Red/White/Brown
the user may choose one of them - it would be really nice to have some Pics (maybe with a text at there bottom, maybe not - both should be possible) with radiobuttons to choose one of the images.

There are many more possibilitys, where one would like such a feature, since many things can be described far better by using an image than by using words.

hm i have version 0.8.17240 and this function me not work if i upload images images no uploaded and product have no images.

Xel brings out a very good point.(comment #18)
I would really dig a feature like this, anything planned down the road ?

To be precise I allready programmed this feature for my OS-Commerce Shop, cause I had no chance in working without it. I would have not use for any shop system which doesn’t offer this feature. I even inserted a Lightbox-Popup on click on that Image to show it in a nice size.

I have problem with uploading images ... maybe I have tu setup the permissions for some folders? after clicking on upload files I got only option “remove” in fed field

I have a problem with the different product sizes my friend’s shop has. There are for example skis and shoes. Skis are veryyyy long and pretty small, which you can not say for shoes. So if he wants to show skis at the home page they would appear in those small boxes like a small line - almost not recognizable. On the other side with shoes there would be no problem. So the solution would be to have bigger boxes for skis and the standard size for shoes. But this would not look pretty good and probably is not programmable.

Is there a solution to this?

Just make a photo of the Skis were not the whole ski is visible but the nose of the skies.

That *does* look pretty and makes the skis visible. Jap that may be not the prefered method but there is no other way to keep layout consistent and skies visible.

Then I have to use two different pictures for every ski: One with the ski nose only for the home page and the other with the whole ski for the detail picture, right? Is this possible?
