Hello,
- This part of the tutorial explains how you can add an image for each variant of the product:
Color setup
First of all, go to the Joomla media manager.
There, define where you will save your color icon, or create a new folder for this purpose.
Now, you must upload your color icons. Click on the upload button.
Then, click on the "browse" button which will open the classic select window of your computer in order to pick your files (you can select several files). Once the files are selected, just click on the "start upload" button.
NOTE: You can find here, a link to an archive containing several color icons in png that you can use for this tutorial.
The screen let you see all your uploaded color icons. Here is a little tip, in order to make the next step easier! Right click on the needed icon to get its URL, copy it and paste it somewhere for later.

Which, as I understand, is NOT what you want.
- This other part of the tutorial explains how you can add an image for each value of a characteristic. And you do it once and then you can use the characteristic in as many product as you want:
Now, onto the second step. You have your color icons selector displayed, and you want to show different product pictures linked with the color selector. Return to the Hikashop -> Products menu,
...and edit again your product.
Go back to manage to the "Manage variants" menu.
Select your variant.
Start to focus on "Images" section. Click on the "Upload" button OR on "Add" (+), if the picture is already on your website.
