Thumbnails Look Odd

I've been adding some new products to my web site www.pagan-magic.co.uk/shop - every now and then the thumbnails that are generated (I have On The Fly installed) look odd. If you take a look at the following items on the homepage you'll see what I mean: Silver Book Box and Pentacle Ashtray.

The thumbnails lack colour and detail, the correct picture is displayed when you go into the product information page and click on Enlarge.

 

I assume that this error is occuring when the thumbnails are generated - can anyone shed any light on this?

I see what you mean. You might reupload and overwrite the original images for those two products and see if that helps.

 

I see something else, as well. When I mouse over images in New Products for February, the alt text has tons of html in it beyond the typical product name. You've duplicated code and are missing a closing ">.

 

Bold bits:

 

<table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1" class="contentBox">

<tr>

<td><table border="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4" class="contentBoxContents">

 

<tr>

<td align="center" class="smallText" width="33%" valign="top"><a href="http://pagan-magic.co.uk/shop/silver-book-p-1506.html?osCsid=1bc5d0f4e758518ba33deb842364a3c3"><img src="product_thumb.php?img=images/4471.jpg&w=60&h=80" width="60" height="80" border="0" alt="Silver Book Box <img src="includes/languages/english/images/buttons/icon_newarrival.gif" width="28" height="18" border="0" alt="New" title="New">" title="Silver Book Box"<img src="includes/languages/english/images/buttons/icon_newarrival.gif" width=28 height=18 border=0 alt="New" title="New">"></a><br><a href="http://pagan-magic.co.uk/shop/silver-book-p-1506.html?osCsid=1bc5d0f4e758518ba33deb842364a3c3">Silver Book Box <img src="includes/languages/english/images/buttons/icon_newarrival.gif" width="28" height="18" border="0" alt="New" title="New"></a><br>£19.99</td>

I've tried re-uploading the images, but that doesn't seem to help. Thanks for pointing out about the code, I'll go and change that :-"

Ok I can't figure out where I need to change that code either - I'm being slow today :blush:

First check your product description in Admin. Then mebbe post the code to your products_new.php. Are you using a template?

The product description in Admin is ok - I am using the basic design pack, a quick check of the other websites I have which uses this also shows this problem. I've been looking at the code in products_new.php but cannot see anything relating to the alt tag.
