Images & Image Manager (V2)

Upload, organize, and edit product images — from your computer, the web, CSV, or Shopify — with multiple images per product, variant images, and a built-in editor.

Catalog Machine gives you one place to upload, organize, and edit all your product images — and reuse them across catalogs, price lists, and your Showroom.

Ways to add images

  • From your computer — drag-and-drop single or bulk upload (JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF).

  • From the web — paste image URLs to pull from an existing website or cloud storage (Google Drive, Dropbox).

  • With a CSV import — include an image column (URLs or paths) and images attach to products automatically.

  • Shopify — connect your store and product images sync across automatically, variants included.

Organize with the Image Manager

Under Products → Images you get a central library:

  • Group images into folders; search, sort, and filter.

  • Bulk actions: move, delete, or download as a ZIP backup. Use Download all for your whole library, open a folder to get just that folder, or select images to download only those. Folder structure and original files are preserved.

  • See where each image is used across your products.

  • Reuse one image on many products — update it once, it updates everywhere.

Replacing an image

Upload the new file over the old one, or use Replace on the product's image. Keeping the same filename is fine. Every image link carries a version marker that changes the moment you save a new file, so browsers and our delivery network fetch the new picture instead of a stored copy. You do not need to rename the file, and you do not need to wait anything out.

If a catalog or Showroom you already published still shows the old picture:

  • Rebuild the catalog — open it and generate the PDF again, or re-publish. A page built before you replaced the image still points at the previous version until it is rebuilt.

  • Refresh the CDN copies — on Products → Images, open the menu beside Upload Images and choose Refresh CDN copies. Inside a folder it refreshes that folder only. This is a repair for links published before version markers existed, so it is rarely needed.

  • The viewer's own browser can still hold the old image briefly, and nothing on our side reaches it. Ask them to hard refresh (Ctrl+F5, or Cmd+Shift+R on Mac) or open the link in a private window.

PDFs follow the same rule. Once an image inside a catalog changes, the stored PDF is no longer reused, so the next download is rendered with the new image.

Add an image to a catalog page

Inside the catalog designer, open the Images tab in the right-hand panel. Your uploaded images appear there. Drag any image onto the page, or click it to drop it in. Use the Upload button in that panel to add new images without leaving the designer.

Multiple images & variant images

  • Multiple images per product — add Image fields to a category (e.g. Main, Detail, Lifestyle). The first is the primary; the rest show in galleries and detail views.

  • Variant images — give each color/size/style its own image, shown in the catalog and Showroom (Shopify variant images map automatically).

Built-in image editor

Crop, resize, rotate, adjust brightness/contrast, add text or a watermark — right in the browser, no external tool needed.
