If you add the image field to the product display (the node) then it will apply to all variations.

If I have t-shirts, on the "product" I set the price, sku, and size (and check the box for the size field to be used as options - can't remember the exact wording). Then on the "product display", which essentially is a node with a product reference field, I have the image field and the product description. This way, when another size is selected in the options select list, the image and copy aren't reloaded via ajax.

What if you need the images (or a set of images) to reflect the chosen color? I'm assuming then you'd need to add the image field to the product type. But the images shouldn't change on size, provided you have 3 sizes of Blue, you'll have 3 products, but they would all have the same images? seems very redundant to me, is there a better way?

File Field Sources - very cool module to solve the "re-upload" problem. Maybe this is what you are looking for.

how did it solved your problem ? Do you still have the same images for the sizes ? If not could you tell me how you've done it ? :) regards
