Nice site. I have a question. In the shopping cart, when I click on an image to open in the lightbox effect but the image is still tiny - I have to click a second time to enlarge that tiny image. That's pretty silly. Why not just have it open larger? After all, that is why people click on the image the first time.
Thanks Tom & Dazzy. I appreciate you looking at the store, and your kind complements.
I've gotten similar feedback on the image behaviour from several friends as well, and I agree this needs to be changed. I'm now playing with the pictures functions in SCD Pro & SCC Pro to make changes and still get the look I want.
The way the item details are now, I sized the large thumbnails to get a "matted/framed look" in the thumbnail window (A look I really like for the site.) Also, every image is sized/sharpened for how it will show on the site; that's important to maintain image quality for a photo site.
I wish that SCC Pro would just go to the 2nd (large) image when one clicks on the 1st (large thumbnail), then the small thumbnail wouldn't be needed and the desired behaviour - see a large image by clicking on the small one - would happen automatically. As it now functions, it's going to take some ingenuity and fiddling to achieve both the behaviour and look I'm shooting for.
Thanks again. Other ideas/thoughts always welcome.
