 ===What X-Magnifier does===
-X-Magnifier enhances delivery of image content in an X-Cart-based online store and provides enriched media experience to the store website visitors. Designed to facilitate presentation of high-resolution images on the Internet, X-Magnifier add-on module provides a Flash-based viewer that allows your store visitors to examine large images of your product items in detail and, possibly, even to save some time and traffic while doing so. Customers can freely zoom in and out on any area of an image, as well as drag the image around in the viewer work area to examine every detail of the item displayed. No image quality loss occurs during magnification, so your customers are provided the ultimate viewing experience at any magnification level.

 Note that any GIF and PNG images that you upload for use in X-Magnifier as zoomable images are automatically converted to JPEG. Please be aware that format conversion may have an undesirable effect on images that have transparent areas: as JPEG format does not support transparency, image areas that used to be transparent in GIF and PNG will no longer look transparent after the images are processed by X-Magnifier. In GIF files, transparent areas become black, while PNG transparency may turn into shades of gray.
