The thumbnail folder is indeed not used anymore so you can remove it. Anyway, you can remove all the thumbnail folders if you want and HikaShop will regenerate the thumbnails on the fly when needed. Indeed, sometimes, the GD resizing might not work properly. Thank you for your kind comments. If you want, you can post a review on the JED.

I looked at administrator/components/com_hikashop/helpers/image.php, and it looks like watermarking is done in the resizeImage function. Maybe that function is never getting called, when image_x and image_y are both empty? Thank you in advance for any help solving...

You deserve it! -Henry")* Hi all, I do not know if this is a bug or I have not found a way to make it work correctly! When I add more than one image to a product, the image sizes tend to use the size of the first inported image in that product. Only the first product has the right proportion, all other images (and that is because they have not all the same size! which can happen I think) are changed to the size of this first one as a preview within the page. When you click on it, the pop-ups work great for every individual image as they keep their original propotional settings. as a demo I have a part of my product page showing the mutated preview and the correct popup. It is the last image of 6. - [ ![image-mutation-hikashop.png](/forum/attachment/2650) ](/forum/attachment/2650 "...n-hikashop.png") [ ](/forum/attachment/2650?download=1 "...n-hikashop.png") Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzQtaG93LXRvLzMyMDM2LXRodW1ibmFpbC1wcm9mdXNpb24/dG1wbD1tYXJrZG93bg==) or [Create an account](/register) to join the conversation. - **[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")** - [![nicolas's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar63.png?1793428657)](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") - [ Away](/forum/user/63-nicolas) Less More - Posts: 86323 - Thank you received: 14283 - - 14 years 8 months ago [\#38516](#38516) by [nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") Replied by *[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")* on topic *[Re: thumbnail profusion](/forum/4-how-to/32036-thumbnail-profusion#38516 "Since upgrading to 1.5.5 (from about 1.4.4), I have many new thumbnail directories in /media/hika_shop/uploads... thumbnail_155x220 thumbnail_160x220 thumbnail_156x220 thumbnail_158x220 thumbnail_172x219 thumbnail_174x220 thumbnail_205x220 thumbnail_219x207 thumbnail_220x166 thumbnail_123x220 and on and on... one directory for every size of thumbnail that exists, I guess.
