You need to upload 3 image sizes - big_images, product and thumbs for all your products ... the admin panel will create these for you if you upload the largest image when creating a product.

If you are manually doing it then you need to create the three images sizes and upload into the seperate directories.

Why?

Because the system uses the different sized images in different places to reduce bandwidth requirements ... For example in product listings it uses the thumbs image where in the product info page it uses the product image or big_image depending on if you have the image zoomer turned on or off.
