I have a site in Drupal 4.7 (<a href="http://blog.shostak.net">blog.shostak.net</a>) where the images just stopped working - the ones that are there are fine, but I can't add new ones, I just get tons of errors. On another site I fixed that by resetting to defaults, but I don't want to reset the image sizes to default there. I've left it alone for now because I planned to upgrade to D5 and change the theme anyway.
<br><br>On another site (<a href="http://urbanorganic.jeangazis.com">urbanorganic.jeangazis.com</a>), which is a multisite install, I have images there but can't add new ones. The files are there, but the images don't appear. If I use image import, it duplicates the preview and thumbnails. Something is getting messed up in the path.
<br><br>I also have a site where I really need it to be easy for users to upload photos, and it doesn't look like imagefield and imagecache are the answer to that, either. I might try one of the gallery mods. I've only used the gallery that comes with image.
<br><br>So it seems like the module has a reputation for being buggy, and is going wrong for me in more than one way, so I'm interested in alternatives. I'd prefer that they don't require custome theming, though, because I haven't gotten into that yet.
