Hello all!

I was wondering if there is an easy way to enlarge the products thumbnails both in the product list view (check this: http://www.fallovserafim.se/power/index.php?p=productsList&iCategory=18&sName=Hoodies) and in the product information (check this: http://www.fallovserafim.se/power/index.php?p=productsMore&iProduct=97&sName=AC/DC---Back-In-Black-(Hu vtr%F6ja)

I am not too good at PHP, so if there is an easy way to fix this i would be glad.

Cheers!

Actually, you don't need to know PHP fr that. In Admin click on Settings and you will see the option to change the thumbnail size.

Anyway, I would recommend to make your thumbnails (whatever size you want them) with a program like IrfanView or similar, name them with names same as thumbs in files/products directory and replace by FTP the original thumbs with yours. This is what I do for beter image quality.

Thanks for the tips Loginn!

Actually i have tried changing: Configuration > Product Image Size and Category Image Size from 100px to like 600px and nothing happens. All the filepermissions are correctly set aswell. And the original pictures i upload to the img on the FTP are bigger then the thumbnails that is displayed in the product list and the product informationpage.

I find this strange...

An image with 600px width, I can't call that a thumbnail? I don't uderstand if your problem is solved or not. If it's not, make sure you name the images you want as thumbs same names as the thumbs that are already in /power/files/products/. They should be called something like: "image1_m.jpg", "image2_m.jpg" etc. Then upload them in that directory and replace the old thumbs.
