What <br>I would like is to have a main image for each node (which I can style <br>differently in the teaser and main image display), but also to be able <br>to add images to the body of a text using wysiwyg. The two should work <br>together, at least enough that they can be configured to store files in <br>the same place.<br><br>Insert plus filefield looks pretty good, but is missing the following <br>things I would like (in order of preference):<br>- the main thing is that file fields don't currently have an image <br>browser - you get an upload file button but no way of browsing for <br>existing images. This is pretty essential for us.<br>- also there is no facility to restyle the images - e.g. float left or <br>right. (You can change the size using imagecache presets, but this isn't <br>the same as css styling.) I could add this using css classes, but it's <br>not an intuitive solution for end users.<br>- tags on image fields would be really nice to make them easier to <br>manage later.<br>- another nice but non-essential feature would be if the image browser <br>used views so we could define our own ways of accessing previously <br>uploaded files. ImageBrowser does this but there is no D7 version (yet?)<br><br>I might be up for coding some or all of these features if there isn't <br>something out there already, but obviously would rather not if there's <br>something written already.<br><br>andy<br>-- <br>[ Drupal support list | <a href="http://lists.drupal.org/">http://lists.drupal.org/</a> ]<br></div></blockquote></div><br><div apple-content-edited="true"> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 0px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-decorations-in-effect: none; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0; "><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><div><div><br></div></div></div></span></div></div></body></html>
