hi,
First of all sorry for the delayed response.
Secondly, this problem has absolutely nothing to do with our template. It is a core Virtuemart related thing. We don't provide free support if the problem is not directly 100% caused by our template.
Lastly, here is my idea about your case;
- it is a very bad idea to change the image folder name. You may easily mess up with the current states. You may need to re-start uploading pictures from the beginning, because thumbnail paths are stored in the database. Changing the folder name for pictures will break the harmony for the existing pictures and thumbnails.
- After deciding a new folder name for your pictures (lets say domain.com/product),
- Upload the "LARGE" pictures to that folder (never upload thumbnails and let Virtuemart to create the thumbnails for you)
- Then via Virtuemart Backend, navigate to Shop --> Media Files
- Remove all the pictures you see in that (most likely all the pictures will fail to load and you see X sign for them)
- Then click the "Synchorinize media to Virtuemart" button from the top-bar.
- "Synchorinize media to Virtuemart" button will synronize the pictures from the pictures folder to your Virtuemart (thumbnails will be re-generated and database will be updated with the new paths)
- Then, you will have a set of fully working pictures & thumbnails
- Open each product one-by one and remove the old pictures, instead add the new one. (you don't need to upload, you can add them via "search pictures" field

-- But again, this is also very critical procedure. And it is quite easy to mess up as well. Also, if you currently have ~500 products, this would take like hours and hours, because you have to re-defined the pictures for each product one-by one
Of course - MAKE SURE TO BACKUP FIRST before doing what i am saying above (i would recommend you to do this procedure on your localhost first)

Thank you, I've tried it - unfortunately it didn't help. I haven't notice before it's not about your responsibilities to help me with VirtueMart. Anyway I was looking for an answers for hours, still didn't find anything, and thats the only damn thing which is blocking me to make the release. In that case, can you please tell me if I can restore somehow data I started with(your sample shop products e.g Headphones etc.)? I mean about VirtueMart - I have about 40 products, but I think it's going 2 be much faster do it that way, then look for solution.
Actually it's very interesting because I have something like this: (attachment)
I have there path like this:
<img src="//pics/products/resized/asd2_175x175.jpg" alt="asd2.jpg">
but I've tried to put there my domain / http / etc, etc.. ( i know its not recommended but still I really wanted to try everyting). So Maybe thats the reason its not visable?
Really when the case will be solved I will dance macarena.
Thank you for any support, cause I'm totally stucked.

I can even manually create thumbs or do whatever with it, but I'd like to have it done. Maybe it's possbile to dissable them? I can do it start the webstie and then look for solution.
