Is there a simple "drag and drop" image module?
tawebworks - December 3, 2008 - 21:47
I've tried several of the Drupal 6.x image modules, and am still not finding what I'm looking for. I must be missing something. I want to add images to my pages, via a simple upload function. IS there one like that? (Joomla offers a very nice one, but I can't find a comparable in Drupal.)

FCK and IMCE ...
Try FCKEditor and IMCE:
http://drupal.org/project/fckeditor
IMCE:

Thank you!!
I couldn't get FCKEditor to install properly... but when I used IMCE, it's really exactly what I was looking for anyway. THANKS for taking the time to respond!
Drag and Drop ?
There is also http://drupal.org/project/imagebrowser for FCKEditor. This is a fresh (beta) module only for FCKEditor (at the moment). It works nice ! Actually there is no real "Drag and Drop" image-insert module in Drupal.

"Drag and drop" is tricky.
If you want to be able to drag images from your Windows PC into a WYSIWYG editor, you're probably out of luck. In order to integrate with a desktop, you'll need something running on the PC, either natively or in Java. I can imagine a Java widget that would handle file uploads for you, akin to the upload application that comes with the Menalto Gallery.
Another alternative would be to use something OS-specific for uploads, then existing modules for placement. For example, the image_pub module provides Gallery's API such that you can use the Windows XP Publishing Wizard or an iPhoto plugin to manage your images. Then img_assist can help you place the images.
The image handling options in Drupal are still a little messy. At some point, someone smart will take hold of things and clean them up. No idea when, though. :)

Drag drop image uplaoder
Hi ,
We used jump loader as a component to upload images to the tmp directory from where images module can accept import images. But thats a very long winded way of doing it. This is to request for an enhancement of the integration of the jumploader applet to the image module for image uploading with drag drop.

for your reference. Im too new to write a module of that complexity. But maybe if i got some pointers...
