Adding Pictures to Products

From FloristWiki

You can also add your own pictures to local products (Selection Guide products already have pictures associated with them). You must have previously saved a new product before you can add a picture to it. You can either take a picture using the Logitech QuickCam, or browse to an existing picture.

If you are attaching pictures you are using for custom products that you will upload to your FOL Web site, FTD recommends the pictures are 300x300 pixels.

Product pictures are stored in C:\Wings\Pics\Products.
