Hi again!

There is one problem, if I haven't missed something; there is no way to share images or to browse other peoples images? This is a major disadvantage if more than one person is going to administrate images that may be shared between them.

Could it be possible to upload images to either a common repository (access guided by user role) OR to my own folder under imagepicker/a/admin ?

Lets call this function Image Picker Image Sharing (IPIS). If I have the rights to upload to the IPIS folder I should also be able to browse it. Perhaps two extra tabs?

Upload to personal folder | Upload to IPIS | Browse personal images | Browser IPIS images

Messy? :)

Each user already has their own folder and at the moment they cannot be shared.

I am working on a tab under 'My Account' where users can manage their files.

I am not yet sure what would be the best way to manage sharing, it's needed for sure.
It could be done virtually eg with entries to a table, either by user or by role. This would fit the IPIS idea without having to maintain duplicates

More thinking needed I reckon. ;-)

As I have not been able to think of a way to safely share images between users I have closed this issue. If anyone has any ideas on how to implement this feel free to post a patch
