Description
Thanks for this module, it solves so many problems. One question: the project I'm involved with requires processing "Tweets" from Twitter into nodes w/ FeedAPI, using the standard Twitter rss feeds. The Twitter feeds include images for each tweet, and we want to process them as well, but I'm not sure how to bring them over. Embedded media field doesn't support Twitter for images, so can't go that route. Any ideas?

"Embedded media field doesn't support Twitter for images" - I'm not sure what you are talking about here - it may well be that the actual problem is that the parser does not expose these twitter images to the rest of the feedapi stack.
Maybe #535970: Mapper for imagefield is of interest for you.

Thanks for the reply. Regarding what I meant by "Embedded media field doesn't support Twitter for images", I mean that Embedded media field (the module), supports embedding images from a list of sources, such as Flickr, Picasa. Twitter isn't one of them. So I can't use the em field module, and would need to use feed element mapper.
As for the new mapper, I'll try that today. Thanks.
