Upload Image
Upload Image - This link brings up a pop-up window which will allow you
to browse to the images folder stored on your PC and select the required image
to upload it to the website. In order to be able to upload images
there should be writable permissions on your shop's "images" folder along
with its subfolders (tiny/small/big/super).

resize images generating smaller images from a larger one (but not vice versa).

generate Big, Small and Tiny images. Then system will create appropriate images
and save them in corresponding folders and also auto-fill these images fields
on the tab.

- Select - On clicking it system will insert this image path in the image field.
- View - By default on clicking this link system will open this image in a new window.
Note: you can change this setting and make the system to show preview image
by hovering your mouse pointer over the Image Name field by ticking the checkbox Show image thumbnails on Select Image screen for administrators in System > Global settings.
