Can this be run outside of admin?

Issue Summary

This module is just what I am looking for: it resizes the photos and uploads them as a batch.

However, the Upload Photos function links to admin/content/imgupload so I must give a user access to administration pages in order for them to be able to use the module. I want to be able to make it available to users like I could do with Image, Acidfree, or the image_fupload module (which don't resize photos). Could this module be changed so that it has its own permissions more like Image or Image Upload so that I could assign permission to upload photos without also granting access to administration pages?

There isn't anything I can see in the module that is dangerous for users to be able to do.

Um.. I don't understand. The imgupload module perms are different from anything else. I have users that can upload photos and are not admins. Or am I not understanding?

I must grant access to administration pages to any user who needs to use imgupload as the path is admin/content/imgupload/0. If the path were just imgupload/0, then I would not need to assign access to administration pages to the user.

Or am I missing something? What path do you use to allow the users to upload photos? Did you manage to do it without granting them access to administration pages?

Well, the image upload 'path' is just an URL, which doesn't really have permissions per se. So no, I don't have require my any permissions other than 'registered user'.
