   As it is now, the color swatches display 5 accross before it drops down to a 2nd line. I need to make it display 4 accross so I can use slightly larger images. Can this be done?

	Yes - unless this changed with 3.5 - I am still using 3.1: 1. Open app-ViewPrdFuncs.asp in the /store/pc folder for editing (make a backup first of course!) 2. Search for the sub called ColorSwatches() 3. Find the line that reads: if Ocount=5 then Ocount=0 4. Change 5 to 4 Hope that works for you. Alan www.standoutdesigns.com

	What is the suggested image size for the swatches? And is there ways to control the size?

	There is no hardcoded size, nor the size is set via CSS. The size of the swatch is the size of the image that you associate with that option attribute. Since the system by default shows 5 swatches on one line (see above for instructions on how to change this), the recommended size is the typical width of your product images, divided by 5, and taking into account a bit of padding between them. For example, if your typical image witdh is around 200 pixels, then swatches that are 30 pixels wide or less will work well.
