create resized images not working

I've built a custom template but I cannot seem to use the resize image feature.

I need smaller pics for my product page.

I have configured the images, the new size is in my product drop down and I have selected the images and "created resized images". I have looked in my images directory and a new folder ss_size1 has been created as well as files starting with .img.

What is going on??

To use the image size you specified on the Edit Product Info page in the backoffice you just use the normal [-- product.graphic --] tag in your template and ShopSite will put what ever size you have configured on the page. Is that not working? Are you building the image url yourself instead of using the ShopSite tag?

Actually I'm using the [-- IMAGE PRODUCT.Graphic --] tag. If I chage it out will it effect any other functionalities?

Thanks.

[-- IMAGE PRODUCT.Graphic --] just returns the image itself and not the complete url to display the image. If you are using that then you are creating the rest of the url to display the image in the template. Changing to use the [-- PRODUCT.Graphic --] would change what you are doing in your template but it will probably simplify the template.
