Questions (Development)

[sfj]

By the way, so far, this product is OFF THE HOOK. I Have worked on a wide variety of Asp.Net Storefronts (I Worked for two companies AC Competes with as well), many Open Source, and PHP solutions, and have written a few gateways too many if you know what I mean.

AC has a superb framework, and I have never had so much ease and comfort in a storefront environment before.

I wrote a gateway in about twelve hours, including downloading and setting up the express editions of Web Developer and C#.

I am really looking forward to the rest of the modifications as well, and have read the documentaion and I am quite excited

(excuse my lazy language, I haven't slept in about 48 hours).

But, I think it will be about 24-48 more hours before I can code again, and I was hoping to ask a few questions - so that when I come back, I have some pointers or general ideas in place about what I want to do, and how to go about it.

* I will be making the ICON image, the image you see when browsing from any category page.
* the Medium Image will be the image you see on the product detail page
* WHen you click the medium image, it will popup to the large image

The swatches will work similarly, (we are a clothing company),

When you change to red, the image will change to red, and if you click it, it will take you to a larger image.

* The related pictures, instead of being links to 'show more images' will show the icon sized images below the main image
* When you click them it will take you to a POP up of the medium sized image

To see an example of what I mean, see this link:

(Just the functionality I mentioned).

I am sure with the docs, and community I can sort it out but i gladly take a pointer in the right direction whenever I can

Thanks,

SFJ

There are several samples of image galleries here on the forum. Search for lightbox, image gallery. Mazhar and Logan have both posted controls.

Thanks for getting me started,

We will use:
viewtopic.php?f=47&t=9071

And will turn the next,prev images into THUMBNAILS

Shouldn't be so hard to do, but every new language,platform,framework I work with, I tend to freak out a bit But at least I know the exact file I will be working with *the cronlin I downloaded*

Thanks,
