What are all the "derivative" image modules you are using? I found  
that "image attach" is pretty bad because it doesn't allow for the  
user to change any of the image settings. You have to basically set  
them "in stone" and not allow any changes whatsoever.

I think it was PingV who create the "Image Assist" module and that  
one is quite good. I also use the "Upload Preview" module, BUT what's  
been most helpful than anything else is BUEditor. My contributors  
have their images hosted elsewhere. BUEditor allows for just adding  
the image URL and changing dimensions. I have added an extra DIV  
option for adding credits and/or a comment under the pic.  That  
though, is my customization.
