hi nicholas,

a possible suggestion for your default htaccess file. directory components/com_virtuemart/shop_image/vendor is used to call vendor / store image on paypal payments page. Maybe worth adding as default since you have others added. without exception, obviously no store image on paypal payment page. what you think?

By default, most common media files are allowed to be called directly from anywhere in the subdirectories of the "components" directory. I can think of two issues:
- An image without an extension
- Enabling the referer filtering feature

Begin by disabling the referer filtering and, if this doesn't work, check the image file names. Does it have a valid image extension (e.g. jpg, png, gif, bmp)? If it does, is it lowercase or uppercase? On the web, JPG, jpg, Jpg and jPg are all different extensions and could throw off the exceptions regular exception built into Admin Tools' .htaccess Maker.

It may be referer filtering, i'll check it out and try again. Extensions and case etc are all correct. I just added as exception. Will try and report back.
