Important! This plugin is not currently maintained and will not receive any further bugfixes. If you are a 
Shopp-minded developer and are interesting in taking over the reins, though, please feel free to contact me or simply 
fork the code/start afresh/whatever you prefer (and apply to the good people at wordpress.org for a new repo here in the 
plugin directory if that is fastest) 🙂

<li>Optionally remove the old images from the database after migration</li>

Shopp Image Tools is a utility plugin for users of the <a href="https://shopplugin.net" rel="nofollow ugc">Shopp e-commerce plugin</a>. 
By default, Shopp is configured so that product images are stored in the database, this means additional database 
use every time one of these images is fetched.
While this mode can be turned off there is no built-in mechanism to pull the images back out of the database and 
store them as regular files – that is what this plugin is designed to help with. It now also includes tools to 
clean-up the database that you can optionally enable.

This plugin works with and depends upon the Shopp e-commerce plugin for WordPress. It is designed to integrate with the 1.2.x branch of Shopp and has been successfully tested with Shopp 1.2.1.
Enough of that, what does it do?
<ul>
<li>Shopp already ships with a widget that can be used to display product categories. This is an alternative to that widget.</li>
<li>Select only those categories that you wish to include, ignore the rest.</li>
<li>Easy to use: simply check the boxes for the relevant categories, choose the display mode (dropdown, regular list etc) and you’re done.</li>
<li>A convenient way to build category-based store menus in the sidebar!</li>
