#119 Image Manager Enhancements

[Dominic Ryan]

Hi All,

Been using image manager a bit over the past week or
two, and there are a few things that I think could be
done to make this great feature even better.

1. Sub categories. If you plan to use a lot of images on
   your site, then having only a single level of category
   organisation is going to make your image organisation
   very cluttered very quickly.

2. Image thumbnailing. This would be useful for saving
   bandwidth and for those using fixed width themes. If
   you could have an option to 'enable thumbnail' so that
   when you upload an image, a thumbnail of definable
   dimensions and quality of that image (such as in
   xcGallery) is automatically created. Then when you use
   image manager to insert an image only the thumbnail is
   shown, and when you click on the thumbnail the full
   sized image is opened up in a new window.

3. Sorting in alpabetical order. I found that the number
   weighting system for ordering image display a little
   clunky as well. It would be good I think if there was an
   option to just sort alpabetically on the names you give
   the images. Perhaps even someway of associating the
   images with the articles/posts/faqs that they are being
   used in?
