THIS MODULE WILL ONLY RUN ON PHP 5.1 OR ABOVE, check your php version on admin - version.
UPDATING FROM 3.1.3? SIMPLY COPY all files under zen_cart_folder without needing to run sql installer (UPDATE FRIENDLY! :) ).
perfect alternative to Zen-Cart standard image viewer. This module will allow your site to display the product images in way better manner.
Consider this module as a combination of past version of AJAX Image Swapper, Fual Slimbox, and Image Handler.
Now using Mootools Javascript library, making it loads faster with smaller script size. To make it even smaller, you may compress the javascripts.
This module is an extremely huge jump from the existing Ajax Image Swapper, with heaps of new features.
I also added Jay's Message, a message displayer on the admin area, directly connected to my site to quickly inform you of any news I have with my modules (new updates, compatibility issues, etc).
Check on "Development Road Map" area below for more information on what functionalities I am going to add to this module in the future.
(By the way, I DO realise the images I put above doesn't really reflect what this module do, I just don't really have time to set up new images, take a look at the demosite for a real demonstration of this module)
