Took me a while to figure it out how to enable this module.
The problem: even using administrator account, after installing imagepicker, image picker doesn't show up.
Solution: go to admin/settings/imagepicker and save default settings.
It isn't obvious, because straight after installing this module, when you go to the settings page, all "Node Types" are checked - so theoretically there is no need to save it.

hutch commentedI have been aware that some folks cannot get the imagepicker to appear straightaway and now perhaps I can see why, since it has never happened to me. I have always followed the classic mantra, "Install, Configure and Use" but it would appear that others do not. I suspect that the reason imagepicker is not appearing straightaway is due to caching but I will test and see what happens.
Comment #2
hutch commentedI have found out what the problem was and have committed the fix to CVS along with wysiwyg module support.
Imagepicker is now enabled for all node types by default, I'm not sure that is such a good idea. ;-(
Comments welcome.

wwalc commentedPersonally, I'm happy if a module works out of the box and doesn't force me to configure too many things :-)

pt0r commentedI think it would be a good idea to change the "readme" file to tell users to just save the configuration settings in case- I had this same problem after downloading the most recent version.
Comment #6
hutch commentedThe readme already says:
"After installation go to Administer > Site configuration > Imagepicker and select your preferences and Save Configuration."
That's pretty clear to me ;-)
