Images In Magento

Adding products to your Magento products is relatively easy.

First if you haven’t done it already bring up the list of products from the Magento Admin area > Catalog > Manage Products

Browse and upload your image:

Now, that you’ve loaded the image select the display options you want for it.  Note: images will automatically scale to the appropriate size but if you want to optimize images for each here are recommended dimensions:

Small Image -> Used in category landing/product listing page, recommended size: 135px X 135px

Base Image -> Main product image in Product View page, Base Image can be whatever, though, the default is set to 265px wide.

Recommended size for thumbnail is 50 X 50px.

Click Save and Continue and your done.
