When I thought about enhancing my ImageBrowser plugin I found two possible solutions for the sorting problem:

1. Sort images into subfolders and keep some information in an additional file (other sizes, thumbnails, comments, …) per directory. This would be nice for all people who already have subfolders but also has some drawbacks because information is scattered around over all subdirectories. Maybe synchronizing this with a database table for faster searching and other functionality would be possible.
2. Categories like WP uses them and a single folder. This would have been nice in the beginning but there already exist too many solutions based on subfolders and other plugins which wouldn’t integrate nicely.

Do you have some other ideas and feature suggestions?
Thanks,

I already thought about adding templates and some other stuff to the Image Browser plugin but I had no time to do it until now.
Can you explain to me what the Embed Image plugin does or point me to the location where the documentation resides?
Thanks,

The other way is to upload images via WordPress (let WP generate Thumbnails) and afterwards use the Image Browser plugin to include the image into the post.

For sure this is possible. mod_rewrite can do almost everything you’ll ever want concerning URL rewriting.
To do the trick, open you .htaccess file in the site root and add an additional RewriteRule between the RewriteBase directive and the first WP created Rewrite Rule. The rewrite rule should simply be:
RewriteRule ^information/skills/dribbling/s03/?$ /information_skills_dribbling_s03.php [QSA].
The first parameter is the path requested by the browser (the /? means that the ending slash is optional), the second parameter is the actual file on the harddrive which should be served for this Request.
You could also have a look at the URL Rewrite Guideand maybe at the mod_rewrite Reference for further documentation.

Do you mean something like the list at binarybonsai?
And here’s the link to download the UsedPlugin-Plugin.

You can’t use the two Textile plugins together. Just deactivate Textile 1 (keep Textile 2 active) and it should work again.

You will have to chmod all files you want to edit via the WP template editor. The actual filename is always written above the textarea. If you want to make changes for example to the “Main Index” aka “index.php” you’ll have to go to the directory where WP is installed and “chmod 666 index.php“.
If you want to know more about what chmod does and how it works, you should have a look at the Man page.

SPAW is *IE only* which doesn’t run under Linux and I don’t think M$ will port it.

For a start, there are some nice Statistics at W3.org.
I personally design to make it look good at 1024×768 but it must remain viewable at 800×600 without horizontal scrolling. Normally I use a 750-790px div centered horizontally as a wrapper.

You have “letter-spacing: -1px” in your CSS which makes the characters bump into each other, especially when text is small. After removing this all should be more readable. I wouldn’t use letter-spacing at all because Typefaces are carefully designed to look right with the default spacing (maybe it can be useful for titles).

For the caching discussion: Have you ever tried the Statizice Reloaded plugin? Caching is done quite simple but it works.

I don’t know if subdirectories are really the best solution. I would prefer it to sort images into multiple categories like posting in multiple categories which would be much more flexible.
The “title” attribute should be an optional extra because not everbody wants it (maybe one could allow choosing on a per-image basis). Until now there are several plugins out there which allow you to include images into your posts. Maybe my own plugin Image Browser is what you need and it can be configured to generate title attributes if you want it.

And when you’ve written a plugin but don’t have a (public) blog?

You can generate them on your own with an external program. If you have an image called e.g. “image.png” resize it with your favorite image editing tool (GIMP, Photoshop,…) , call it “thumb-image.png” and upload in WP.
The other option is to change some of the WP core code. The needed changes are explained in this post. Hope it helps.

Maybe you can try the WordPress CSS Guide.
