Select Color Templates from the left side menu
Click ON the template itself to change the image that is there to your own.
Choose image (175 x 196 px: jpg, gif or png) that you have on your hard drive by clicking Browse and selecting it
Click update

I would like to suggest that you put more detail in your titles.

If one is searching froogle for decals - won't they put the word decals in the title? Your items as they are would never come up in a search.

I'm a little confused on what size the pics need to be of our products. I've been trying to build my store and all my pics are getting seriously cropped to the point that they are useless.

Unfortunately, I see we need to use a square pic, so I have revised my photos, but they still are not coming out right.

Any advise?

Thanx!

Well, the only pics that show as square are the thumbnail images for categories and for items when browsing in a category. You'll notice that the pics in the actual listings are the same proportions as when you uploaded them.

The square thumbnails, I assume, are done that way as a matter of aesthetics. It gives the site a neat appearance.

If you really want to crop all of your images so those thumbnails look better, though, you might want to check out a piece of software called "A Square Image" (http://www.trivista.com/products/asquareimage/). I've never actually used it myself though.
