My biggest gripe with most online photo management apps is that even if you have access to the server via FTP, you must individually select each file to upload. I can see Radiant excelling in this capacity with well designed rake tasks for whatever image extension takes the lead in this ca

Just to add: in the context of the broader discussion, I'd agree that Radiant needs a stable plugin for basic image handling. For my own needs, the Gallery Extension, with the cropping feature in my previous message, would cover most situations. *DN >> What are the core plans for a new i

Dan, I'm thrilled to see "image manipulation" as one of your planned features. Can I put in a specific request -- acknowledging that, as you said, this is moving slowly? I've been hunting for a way to control thumbnail generation from within a gallery or asset management tool, and so far I

The scope of 0.7 has not changed, but we have a lot of enhancements yet to do to 0.6, IMO. One major thing is the discovery and installation of extensions, half of which I wrote at RailsConf. Asset management is an issue that I think everyone wants a different solution for. I primarily wanted

Hi again I've followed the discussion about using page attachments for images with great interest, and finally we got it working too. However, because you can't reference attachments from snippets or layouts, this doesn't really seem like a good solution for images that reoccur throughout a web
