It's not inherently obvious what the 'Save' button actually does. Lets name it 'Create crop' and maybe add some help text.

I agree. This is a brilliant module in terms of functionality but is of little use if the end user cannot figure out how to use it. Why are we even showing the word 'imagecache'? What is a non techy person (ie most people) suppose to think that means? :)

I've used string overrides to change:

'Imagecache presets »' to ' '

'Javascript crop' to 'Crop image thumbnail'

'Even if you think this crop is ok, press the submit button!' to 'Resize image, create crop and close window. Click submit button on images page beneath to save changes.'

And the button issue is important. How about a button to actually close the cropping window when the operation is finished and submit the change?

It would also be nice if the pop up window closed after clicking "save"

Changed the save button, the description, and the title from preset selection.
I haven't done the closing button, because of thickbox.

Hm, I don't understand why it doesn't close after saving. I've installed thickbox and used it for this module, but the lightbox still doesn't automatically close. Maybe a "save" and a "save and close" would be good?

Is this also fixed in 5.x dev?
