====== Most up to date versions ======
Most up to date versions of image handler modified for current releases of zen-cart can be found in the [[http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&products_id=117|zen-cart.com download section]]. As I have no time to take care of this project, the zen-cart community has continued to support and keep image handler up to date. This page will still continue to exist though.
====== Image Handler 2.0 ======
Image Handler2 comes in two different flavours. You can download
* [[http://downloads.breakmyzencart.com/image-handler_2.0-zc13.zip|IH2 for Zen Cart 1.3.x]] or
* [[http://downloads.breakmyzencart.com/image-handler_2.0-zc12.zip|IH2 for Zen Cart 1.2.x]]
Before you install this contribution, please have a look at the [[ih-doc|documentation]] and be sure to check out the [[http://ih2.breakmyzencart.com/|showcase]] to get a feeling of how it is supposed to work. If you have an earlier version of IH2 installed, please check out the [[ih-changelog|changelog]], too. For deprecated versions of Image Handler (1.x and 0.x series) check out the [[ih-attic|attic]].
