Okay given that lead-in then I'll call you out on a factual error since upload is a core module and not needed in the imagefield+cck stack you outline. That aside I think you picked the worst possible example, the image handling methods that dopry established have been tested and proven, that's why they're in core in D7. I'd go further and say that that type of well thought out, engineered work is exactly what makes Drupal great. andrew
