Because of my setup and fupload I do not use the image content type for anything anymore, instead using a custom content type with custom fields that save images to specific paths, etc etc. img_assist defaults to the default image content type and consequentially uses the default image upload form, bypassing my preferred options for image uploads..

I propose having an upload new images setting section in the img assist config that would allow users to specify a different content type for new images

Try using Insert Module. You can create your custom image field for a specific content type and still make use of your default image upload form. I have a custom field for image on one of my content types and I had tried Insert to insert my images anywhere on my content body and it worked fine. I had problems with Img_assist on its default behavior of being displayed just below my custom image field and worse it also appear on under my content body textarea. In Img_assist, there is an option to hide this by looking through your form-id/name and specifying on your Img_assist setting, which i don't want to do. So i shifted to Insert Module.

Hope this will help.

I coudln't be way off, but judging by the screens it looks like the insert module inserts standard img src html into the opsts.. Does this work with private file systems?
