 * Hi surfmedia,
 * For no. 1, You can set the thumbnails by navigating to the WooCommerce Settings
   > Products tab. You’ll just have to scroll down until you see the Product Image
   Sizes section.
 * For no. 2, Make sure that you’re adding a category under the products post type.
   When adding a category, you will see that there is a custom field in there that
   will let you upload an image. Upload your category’s image there. For it to be
   visible though, make sure that you assign products under that category. Also 
   make sure that the images you upload for a category is exactly 450×600 pixels,
   so it wont stretch.
 * Hope this helps!

 * Hi,
 * Just in addition to @wooassists response to your first point, once you’ve changed
   the thumbnail dimensions in the settings you will need to regenerate your thumbnails.
   You can use [this](https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/) plugin
   to do that.
 * Thanks.

 * Thank you all.
 * It seems I need it to regenerate the thumbnails, that was the problem.
 * But on the front page the categories photos are bigger now but they have the 
   size of the product image.
 * I think this is done with css:
 * These settings affect the actual dimensions of images in your catalog – the display
   on the front-end will still be affected by CSS styles. After changing these settings
   you may need to regenerate your thumbnails.

 * That’s how WooCommerce works. Category thumbnails use the same dimensions as 
   product images.
 * To change category thumbnail size you’ll need to target them with some css. Something
   like `ul.products li.product.product-category img {}` should do it.
