How to add images to products in Magento 1.8.1?

Where can I add some nice images for my products I've got in my onlineshop? I'm using Firexox and magento 1.8.1 in Windows XP (VM) As I was looking the YouTube tuts, there were such an "Upload-Button" in Product -> edit -> on the left hand side to images. Unfortunately, I can see no such button.

Thank you

It may take few seconds to show the "Browse Files.." and "Upload Files" button.

OR

Try install/update your flash plugin or use Chrome to upload images

(Magento using Flash to upload images. )

---------------Admin Login in Chrome-----------------

I think there is the problem with session cookie with the chrome browser. So just go through this directory /app/code/core/Mage/Core/Model/Session/Abstract/Varien.php file and comment out the line from 88 to 94 in magento (1.8.1.0 for my case). Like this

// session cookie params
/* $cookieParams = array(
    'lifetime' => $cookie->getLifetime(),
    'path'     => $cookie->getPath(),
    'domain'   => $cookie->getConfigDomain(),
    'secure'   => $cookie->isSecure(),
    'httponly' => $cookie->getHttponly()
);

*/ after that try to make login from your backend.


While working in Magento in development mode(not in production mode) first disable the cache (site will become slow), as sometimes you don't get the result for the updated one.

When you go to Product -> edit as you said, click on the images tab on the left, and you can easily upload product images.
