Ecommerce Lightbox or Gallery with Importer

Permalink
I've read some other posters problems with the built in lightbox for ecommerce and not a lot of good solutions.

I've got Ecommerce and the Importer on my site. What I'm looking for is a way for the importer to also handle all of the images associated with each product.

Right now I have a default page type for the Product Detail which includes a Amiant Gallery so that visitors can see different examples of the product. The problem with this solution is using the Import function does not cover the gallery on the newly created product detail page. So then we have to go back through each product page created and select a file set for the image gallery on that page.

If the lightbox feature within Ecommerce as a mini-gallery, as stated in the documentation, then I could simply add more images with the importer. However when I test the Lightbox on my site starts a spinning circle and never loads. I'm not sure if I would be able to scroll through the other images listed for the product at this point because it won't work correctly.

So my main question is what solution have others come up with to have thumbnails associated with each product? A solution built into Ecommerce that the Importer could cover would be ideal, or a way to implement the other pictures added to a product so they display to visitors in a pleasant way.

Any suggestions/solutions greatly appreciated!
