Hmm, just discovered this module. So, can this be used to add captions under an image by a nonprogrammer? If so, hoping it's intuitive and that you note that caption capability to the module description, as I'm sure you would be hailed as king by many, if so!

This is a tool to assist themers to extend imagefield, the resulting potential combination of possible uses is infinitive! I'll start a handbook page to provide code bits for some possible uses.

We only use one multiple imagefield with flags (checkboxes) to signel the system to do something or textfields for additional theming.

Some uses that we used so far:

Header image checkbox, usage has been at both the page and node level.

Featured teaser list image flag.

Block image of existing page's node.

Adding alternative links from the image

Extra info to the rendered image. Our main usage is to add new attributes for JScript. We haven't actually added a caption yet!

Embedded gallery of selected images

....

And we've only used it on 3 projects so far!

Right, I'll start the first help page - how to safely use the three text formats to insert additional information via the "default link to node" image formatter. Not the easiest example to start with, but at least it is a start.

The custom formatter module greatly enhances the potential for custom formats via token support, without additional docos.
