General General Questions
1

I want to make it a transparent GIF. (i.e invisible)

Hi argentice



Create your own graphic and overight the old one, keep it the same name.

3

But what is the image I overwrite?



If I look at the poperties of the image, onscreen, I see… “Domain Names - Buy a Website Domain - Domain.com”



Does this mean it gets it from the database?

The image is called “No_Image” in your customer/images directory 85*85 gif, and if your images are in the database, think about moving them to file system for greater speed.

5

Do you know how I can get the No_Image file into the database?

6

You ‘dont’ put images into the database.



change this image “no_image.gif”

in /skins//customer/images/



The database spits our/renders the image as a link through the database.

This hides the exact url from access however it freely available from the database when queried (page loaded).

The downside is that your sending queries through the database which takes up more resources since the webserver could provide the same output quicker.

I see.

Use your admin page:

Home —> Settings —> General —>



Images Location -----> Selectbox



Choose File System
