We upload already via FTP.</DIV><DIV>The problem is we need to go to the control panel and add manualy the additional images&nbsp; to each product. This takes much too long. </DIV><DIV>What we need is an import feature (same as import for first picture) but for the additional pictures. It should attach 'picturename.jpg' and 'picturename_detail.jpg'&nbsp;to the right SKU.</DIV><DIV>&nbsp;</DIV><DIV>Sorry if my question isn't clear but english is not my regular language.</DIV><DIV>&nbsp;</DIV><DIV>BTW, we use <a href="http://www.rw-designer.com/picture-resize" target="_blank">http://www.rw-designer.com/picture-resize</A>&nbsp;to resize pictures in bulk(very easy and fast).</DIV>]]>
