The modul produce an data_feed.txt with correct link to the product images, but google says:
"There is no way, we can not parse the pictures because of robots.txt. the pictures are not readable for our google bot spider."
Here our robots.txt
# If the Joomla site is installed within a folder such as at
# e.g. www.example.com/joomla/ the robots.txt file MUST be
# moved to the site root at e.g. www.example.com/robots.txt
# AND the joomla folder name MUST be prefixed to the disallowed
# path, e.g. the Disallow rule for the /administrator/ folder
# MUST be changed to read Disallow: /joomla/administrator/
#
# For more information about the robots.txt standard, see:
# http://www.robotstxt.org/orig.html
#
# For syntax checking, see:
# http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/robots/check.html

Here is as an example the produced image link by "google product export":
http://watches-germany.com/components/com_jshopping/files/img_products/efa21bc5df41a1c9bdf3494d4f6827e6.jpg
google merchant service says: we can not parse this image because of robots.txt for product google search.
But we do not like to open all /components/ folders for spider in our robots.txt!
What can we do?
Why in joomshopping does not exists an public image folder for product pics?
