image thumbnails not showing up/ clean urls

Hi there,

First let me get it out of the way that when it comes to web development I have barely gotten my feet wet. Most anything I have ever done has always included the help of dreamweaver or sharepoint.

The problem I am having is I am trying to build a replacement website/shopping cart for my company’s online store. After tearing through tons of solution I settled on Drupal and ubbercart. ( If anyone has a better suggestion feel free to shout.) So far I really like the Drupal interface and how simple it seems to be to work with.

On to my problem, I have installed WAMP on a test machine and installed drupal and Ubbercart, everything seems to be working properly except when I upload multiple images for an item. The cart tries to display thumbnails but all that shows up is broken image links. From the research I have done I found that for the imagecache module to work properly I need to have clean urls enable. If this is not the problem someone feel free to correct me now. (though ultimately I would like to get clean urls working) I have tried to follow the instructions for option b, since I have access to all the server files I figured it would be the easiest and most effective. Alas I still can’t get clean urls to work. Below is the portion of my httpd file that supposedly pertains to enabling rewrites. And yes I have the rewrite module enabled in apache. If someone can see something wrong with the way I have it written please let me know or if there is a better way to get this working I will take that road as well.

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<Directory "c:/wamp/apps/drupal.com">
  RewriteEngine on
  RewriteBase /drupal
#Rewrite current-style URLs of the form 'index.php?q=x'.
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
  RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
  RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]
</Directory>
</IfModule>
