I was looking for a way that let me change the product image based on the attribute selected for the configurable product. e.g.
Configurable Product With Color Options : 1) Red 2) Green
If the Red is selected by user is should change the main image on the details page with the one from associated products.
I have looked over this one Simple Configurable Product
But in the reviews some one is saying that image changing is not working also this is adding and extra functionality for pricing based on associated products this is not what i was thinking.
Any one having any idea how this can achieve without having to put too much work.
Thanks.

The question is tagged with ce-1.7.0.2 but for future reference, if you are using ce-1.9.1.0 ee-1.14.1 or higher, the feature is already built in, with the so-called Configurable Swatches which allow "Product Image Swap".
You can enable this feature in System > Configuration > CATALOG > Configurable Swatches
