I have sandboxed Imagefield magazinelayout which uses the same code source, but applies it quite differently. If anyone is interested in playing with that. I've linked back to this earlier effort from my project page.

Just FYI if any searchers end up here.

Let's merge your sandbox into this project.

No need for wasting namespaces ... or do you think imagefield magazinelayout is better?

The gift above is very cool :)

I don't have any attachment to the name at all, but it was really hard to remember the keywords, or describe this to someone who is searching for it. I saw your project come through the new projects RSS feed long ago, but it took me a long while searching to find it here this time.

"Composition" sounds nicer, but I was thinking technically of keywords :-)
"It's a field formatter that will render my imagefield using what Harvey called a magazine layout"

I don't think we'll have a lot of code or functionality in common, but if we call the D6 branch a new beginning, I can join it in here, sure!

For me the name magazinelayout is nice although I still would search for image and compose I guess.

Your project (and so would mine if I had more time than ideas) should also get a view display format equally well. So the name imagefield it a little too narrow I guess.

Feel free to claim the image_composition project if that suits you for a D6 version and beyond :)

If you want I can participate then through my current membership.

Again awesome gif demo :)

True imagefield is too specific - it describes JUST my effort today, but there are a few other places this effect could work so yeah. And "magazine layout" is just a shout-out to the original idea.
"Image Composition" is fine by me. If I add some keywords and a preview image on the project page.

So, can you add me to the maintainers on this proj and I can do my git merge.
