I would appreciate the possibility to add images to any recipe.

Of course it is easy to add an image field via the new D7 field API. But it would be nice to have the possibility to add images also to recipes not owned by oneself. Popular European cooking sites use this feature to prevent to many recipes without pictures.

I agree.
Teaser should have Thumbnail | Medium image.
Default should have Thumbnail | Medium image.
P.S. May for star good to write instruction how to do it with D7 image field.
Thanks.

@mv_alex: are you talking about automatically having an image field created for you when you install the recipe module? I'm not sure I understand what you mean with "But it would be nice to have the possibility to add images also to recipes not owned by oneself."

Add option to allow any registered user or special group to add images to existing receipt, not only owner of the receipt.
Thanks.

If I were doing this on a site I were managing, I don't think I would want visitors, even those with specific permissions, altering recipe content. I think I would prefer to have an image attachment field in the node's comments. Then we could rely on the comment module's unapproved/published setting to give you to the ability to moderate the pictures before they're displayed.

If we want those images to appear in the full or teaser views of the recipe, it probably wouldn't be too hard to query for those images and display a set of thumbnails. I don't know how feasible that idea is though. I'm sure it's possible, just not how difficult it would be to execute.

This is what I tried to say. Thanks ;)

@dcam:

I would not want that either. I was more thinking of an additional field, like "images of other users related to this recipe", which could be flagged as inappropriate.

This is do-able with a combination of other modules, namely Views and one of the media/file management modules. I'm not going to yet another feature to this module that can be set up with relative ease by a site builder.
