Image in Product views repeat themselves

1 --When you enter Product View you see a pic of your product and it says click to zoom. Directly below that is a repeat of the image. How do I disable that? I want to retain the ability to show multiple views of a products but not the same image as the base image.

You need to set Exclude for Image, pls see attach fileAttachment 8448

2 --Ok so when you zoom in on the image the frame box pops up fine, but the caption on the bottom overlaps the # of images.What should I do? Is it possible to make the image zoom larger?

Popop window shows original image. Because images are small so the caption overlaps the # of images. You can disable the caption with 2 steps:
1. Open app\design\frontend\default\jm_morganitetemplate\ catalog\product\view\media.phtml file
2. Replace

Code:

$("a[rel='ja-colorbox']").colorbox({});

with

Code:

$("a[rel='ja-colorbox']").colorbox({current:""});

Ok great I will try those out. If I want the image to zoom larger than the normal Product View do I replace it with a larger image? I was under the impression that Magento did not have the capability to change image sizes.

By the way- I understand the thumbnail and regular image size. but what is the small image for??

Thanks

Yes! The larger image will be showed in popup window.

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.

I have read that before and it confused me. my site is http://www.sympathyforthekettle.com

when you get to the home page the product images are the small thumbnails. when I click on the product that is the base image. So where is the small image? Thats where I am confused…if you look at my site does it even use the small image?

Hi Peter.
I had already replied:

Small Image shows in Homepage http://sympathyforthekettle.com/index.php/ and http://sympathyforthekettle.com/inde…ea/blacks.html
In product detail page, it uses Base Image and Thumbnail Image http://sympathyforthekettle.com/inde…ks/almond.html
