A friend of mine turned me on to Drupal and I am having a blast learning it. Should I be working with 4.7 instead of 4.6. I hear it is a lot different.

yup. if you're just learning, might as well as learning what's cutting edge.

4.6 has more modules at the moment that are compatible

Is there a concise list somewhere of what's new in 4.7 or better yet a comparison of 4.6 vs 4.7? Thx. :)

Is the image module compatible with 4.7? I did not find anything which said it was.

But seeing as though it hasn't been tagged for 4.7 yet, the authors might think it still has room for improvement. Either that or they are waiting for a Drupal 4.7 release just to avoid the chance that any prerelease changes in core break compatibility for a short time.

I just installed the cvs ver of image module on my 4.7 drupal and it appears to work fine.

I have both versions on my local machine. 4.7 is great for learning and testing new features.

Update: Now that 4.7 is out of beta and that 4.7.1 (maintenance release) is planned to be released next week I'll be in the process of updating to 4.7, the biggest challenge on one of my sites is to move from 'flexinode' to 'cck', but without any doubts this release has a lot of improvements especially regarding performance.
