Remote image linking

I'm trying to create a store that uses information from a manufacturer's data feed.

 

I've got all the products loaded using Easy Populate (Way cool mod btw), but I have one problem.

 

All the images for the products are not showing. I've got the broken image thingie instead.

 

When I put in the URL for the image, I did remember to remove the http:// thing, but still no images.

 

How does one link to images that are on another server for the products?

 

Anyone know?

 

I'd appreciate any help as I have a deadline for this site.

why did you remove the http:// ?? if remotley hosted you should leave that in. What is an example of the link addy?

Ok, I tried to put the http:// back in, and that didn't work...

 

What the cart is doing is that it's looking in the catalog/images folder for the product images, and I need it NOT to do that.

 

If I click on the properties of a picture that is not showing up, this is what is says for the link:

 

http://mydomain.com/catalog/images/http://.../IL_BACIO_W.JPG

 

What I need to do is figure out a way for the first half of that to be gone...

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks!
