Hi,
I´m buliding up a site to store my photos. Now I wanted to make sure that each photo is imported just once.
Perhaps this could be done together with http://drupal.org/project/exif and unique Field.
I´ve tried to do this but unique field just check nodes created from users directly and not nodes created programatically.

francisu commentedThis will also be helpful for things like screenshots. In my case, I have a collection of screenshots whose source it stored outside of Drupal. I update them sometimes and add new ones. I would like to be able to just reimport the entire collection and where the file names match existing ones it replaces them rather than adding a new node (and appending _x to the filename). Of course this should be an optional behavior (an option can be added for how to handle collisions with existing filenames).

sunGiven that (a different) Image module is in Drupal 7 core, the contrib Image module remains minimally maintained now. It won't see any new features. Instead, we're trying hard to make upgrades to D7 work. See project page for details. Thanks!
