Hi. I'm very new to the workings of the Ecommerce module.

I want the create content page for each product, to allow the addition of a product image. I'm assuming this is part of the ecommerce package, but I don't know where to look for it.

Can anyone help? Do I need any other modules for it to function (ie. image)

Hey,
As far as I know, this is not a part of the e-commerce package specifically. However, if you are using Drupal 5, you can edit your product content type using the content and CCK modules. You will also need the imagefield module for CCK. Then go to Administer > Content Management > Content Types and click on the edit link after product. Along the top will be a tab for Add Field. This will allow you to create a custom component to the product type.

Another way to do what you are trying to do is to create a completely new content type using CCK. Add whatever fields you would like. Then, when you create a new item of that content type, turn it into a product using the product section on the creation form.

Good luck.

the best method of doing this is to use image_attach which comes with the image module, and then do some theming to place the image correctly.
