Just saw this: http://www.agilepartners.com/blog/2005/12/07/iphoto-image-resizing-using-javascript/ And wondering if it could be added to Filebrowser?

    I've been meaning to add that to my zenphoto gallery for a few months now.

    Wouldn't work too well on large photos, though, as it's the browser that resizes, not the script. Especially on browsers which manage memory like Firefox, it'd be a lot less helpful to the client resource-wise to attempt that method with bigger files.

    Would be ok for thumbnails?

    I'd be happy to see that implemented.

    my filebrowser wishlist: 1. editable description for each image 2. optional thumbnail for each folder, random or chosen 3. fancy slidey graphics size thingy 4. someone to program the above hehe

    As you can imagine, filebrowser upgrades are pretty low on my to-do list. The hardest part of what you are requesting is that there is no security built into the filebrowser - and that is a pretty hefty task - you can't just let anyone edit descriptions. I have a bunch of ideas for the next revision, but I'm going to be working on some image integration into swell before I get to the filebrowser. I'm hoping that I get some neato ideas from the swell development that I can take to the table when I get to the Filebrowser again. One of my biggest beefs with the filebrowser is the thumbnailer. Mini suggested this about 2 minutes after I released version1 of the thumbnailer: but why do you have to navigate the thumbnailer folders individually to thumbnail things? Why not have the thumbnailer traverse the directory tree for you? So, that is a feature I will definitely be doing in the next rev. The thumbnailer will not have any navigation. Just a list of every image in the directory tree and a checkbox next to each one.
