Using Images in your Web Store
Images can be attached to items, categories, and information items. Each record type has an image field and thumbnail field which automatically resize images to the correct size. This lets you upload the same image to both fields.
You can set default sizes for thumbnail, drilldown, dense list, and dense list drilldown images at Commerce > Site Builder > Content > Image Resizing. This automatically resizes images to the defined sizes so you can use a single image file in different places.
You must first upload images to the File Cabinet by going to Commerce > Site Builder > Content > Images. Images must be stored in the Images folder to be available to display on your website.

-
Go to Lists > Accounting > Items.

Files uploaded to the Images Folder and the Web Site Hosting Files folder are marked as Available Without Login by default.
