Hello helpful people!
I have been using the image and image assist modules for images on my sites. I've had some problems with them, and when I looked at the issues list for image I was not thrilled, there are a lot of them. It seems like everyone in the local user group (NYC) uses CCK imagefield with imagecache instead for their sites. I'm thinking I should just go ahead and switch. What's the best way to go about it? Will uninstalling the modules cause further problems? Will I have to recreate all the image content?
I have simply images in posts, and some image galleries.
Very recently I've installed gallery for gallery2 and Image. The former because gallery gives a lot of options for uploading images, because it support video and embedded content from other sites (flickr, youtube).
I used Image on my personal site because I need a very clean method to build up simple galleries.
I find that tweaking the layout of Image is much easier than tweaking gallery + gallery2.
What do you think the shortcomings of Image are?
