I want to have a smaller 320x240 image that previews the products as they are all listed together but then when the user clicks on the image, have the lightbox effect show all the bigger images in the "next" image gallery.  Right now when they click on the little image it brings up the little image.   

When the user clicks on "view More Images" it throws all the images out all over the place totally breaking the interface.  Couldn't/Shouldn't it be that "View More Images" brings up the lightbox effect to keep things all nice and tidy?

There is no way to control the lighbox beyond disabling it.

I would like to see a link to the issue with the view more images page though.

Hope this helps.

Again I'm just trying to make it so that when people are browsing through products and click on the image of the product, the light box pops up and people can flip through the images tied to that product.  It is currently confusing and counter intuitive for the user to click on the image, only to be presented with the same image.  But then when they click on "View More Pictures" have ALL the pictures horizontally displayed. . . breaking the interface. . . and only then have the lightbox effect work with all the images for that product.

Check your thumbnail settings under Store configuration the default height and width for thumbnails is set to 120 width and 120 for height.

Right now it looks like there is no proper thumbnail height width which causes the whole image to be shown.

After the settings are updated the image will need to be reloaded for the new thumbnail settings to take affect.

Oh ok I'll try that.  The user will still have to click on "View More Pictures" to get to the full lightbox image gallery for the product?  No way to "fix" that?
