You create two image placeholders (e.g. img_large and img_small) and reference one from the other (img_small -> img_large). Then you set img_large to the image you want to and img_small will display the same image. If you now set the scaling of img_small to a smaller size, img_small will scale down this image. In the end you will have two images in your page, the large and the small one (the small one with "rdax_..." in the name). The same procedure is also done with thumbnails for images that show the large one by clicking on it. Best, Hilmar Bunjes http://www.erminas.de
