Some image orientated requests.
#1
First off, I love this CMS. It's perfect for everything WordPress is too big for!

I would mainly use this CMS for portfolios (as that's what I always seem to be building for clients), so for me personally this CMS is lacking a few things. I'm not too great at explaining things so i'll try and explain the scenario.

I want to be able to upload an image, have a script resize it to a thumb and cache it and then be put into the page content, so the thumb links to the full size image all without fiddling with code, so a client can do it.

A section to add things like a class and rel attribute to the image/link would be cool so people could use any lightbox they wanted.

P.S. If I do ever use this for a client site, I will make a donation.

Thanks Paul. I know i need to do something with how we insert images... it's coming, just not sure when. As for the class or rel attribute, good idea. I need to first see how to make the image insert work best.

I would like to see an easier way to at least link the images into the page without the copy/paste shuffle between pages. Adding the other options like image resizing might not be too hard to hook into something that already exists like TimThumb or PHPThumb. If it was added as a component snippet (or 2) then all of the image resizing, caching etc could be offloaded to an existing project, instead of overwhelming GS with something that not everyone else might need.

Adding to this topic hoping this also gets implemented as the above:

It is rather recommended to declare width and height params of <img/> HTML tag, even if you use some cunning js to play with them afterwards. Could image.php be modified so as these two appear already in text-field with htmlcode to paste? All the variables are already there, so it is just a minor upgrade.
