Product images sizes more consistent

I'm working on making the image thumbnails more consistent looking in the product list view. Where do I go to modify the thumbnail sizes/default width/height, and to edit the CSS vertical alignment for the images within their individual containers in list view?

Also, I would like the images in the product details pages to be larger overall. Where do I find that setting?

Thumbnails size can be changed in the config under the tab files. You will have to delete the thumbnails folder under the upload folder so that new thumbnails are automatically recreated with the new size when they are needed.
CSS for all the front end pieces can be edited by clicking on the edit button next to the front end CSS option under the tab display in the config.
If you need different thumbnail sizes between the listing and the product page, you will have to edit the views where we display the images. You can find both by search for "product" and filter to display only the front end. You will have the show.php file and the listing_img{x}, {x} depending of the type of item layout you're using for the product listing modules.
You will have the $this->image object to which you will be able to apply different values to those variables before the call to the display function :

		$this->image->thumbnail_x
		$this->image->thumbnail_y
		$this->image->main_thumbnail_x
		$this->image->main_thumbnail_y
You will have to know a bit php to do that.

Where do I find the "Thumbnails" folder under the "Upload" folder?

You have the "upload folder" option which indicates the path of the folder where images are stored under the tab files of the configuration. You can use an FTP client to access that folder and in that folder, you will see the thumbnails folder.

Hmm... I went and deleted the images in the "Thumbnail" folder. But when I go to the frontend, it's telling me the items are "Free"!

There is no relation between the thumbnails and the prices of items. Are you sure you didn't change something else ?

I can't figure out why the prices would now be "Free". I had set up prices and all was well till now...

Do you have variants for the product ? If so, does the variants have a price ?

In Products > Characteristics, I had Small, Medium and Large. For the actual Item, I had published the variants. But it seems to be ignoring them now.

I think I've found the problem. I had added another item but had not yet set the price or Characteristic for it, and that seemed to affect other items. All OK now... I have another question but I'll start another thread.
