This patch makes several changes to the way FileField displays to the user. It looks like there used to be a large amount of theming applied to FileFields in the 2.x version for Drupal 6, but these changes were lost at some point during the 3.x upgrade. This patch restores that theming (such as putting the preview next to the upload field, rather than above it) and makes several other changes to help reduce the clutter in FileFields.

Well this is holding up more changes that I'd like to push through, so I'm committing this so I can continue. I've double checked to make sure these changes don't adversely affect ImageField. A 3.0 stable version is definitely in the near future, but I just can't see pushing out a new version with the current UI problems. Please post any comments or thoughts here and we can discuss the changes and make new issues as necessary for further changes.
