Is there a way to add 'attachments' to an image?

I'm not sure if there's something out there - perhaps someone can suggest something for me.

Basically I want users to be able to upload textures & material samples, and then attach the material file to the image. Something like a zip file for a 4000x4000 jpg, or a matlib file from 3dsmax - basically to be able to upload a 'preview' image and then the actual content.

Any ideas?

thanks,

You can upload any file type. Then you can change the thumbnail for that image, if your image toolkit does not make thumbs from the items.

Aye.. I can upload the extra file ok - it's just linking it to the correct image that I was trying to do. So currently I have 2 items in my album, a nice texture image that I can click on to see the big version, and a gtx (custom texture file) with no thumbnail / image. What would be the best way to connect the two?

I guess I'm looking for a thumbnail preview, then a full size image preview, then a download link for the texture file. Again, just looking for the best way to do it!

Thanks,
