What it does:
The Image Picker module is an image upload feature modeled after the image upload currently built into Wordpress but with a few improvements.

Stable versions for Drupal 5 and Drupal 6 are now available and there are development versions for Drupal 5 and Drupal 6. There is now series 2.x as well as the older series 1.x

The stable versions for D5 and D6 now have

  • Configurable alignment options
  • Support for Lightbox2
  • My Imagepicker tab in My Account
  • Paging for the image browser
  • Admin mode for the image browser
  • Additional configuration options on the settings page
  • Image categorisation
  • A configuration option that sets the use of full urls or absolute paths
  • A select box for changing the order the thumbnails are displayed in the browser

Image Picker allows you to:

  • Upload an image
  • Automatically generate thumbnails
  • Specify the size of both your thumbnail and resized large image
  • Browse and choose images from previous uploads, specify float left/right, alt tag, link to options, and have the HTML generated for you and pasted into your node at the current cursor position.
  • Support for configurable node types and comments.

No new nodes are created for each image. It only uploads images, resizes them, and creates the HTML you want for easy insertion.

Please note:
php safe mode will need to be disabled for imagepicker (or any module that uploads) to work.
If you are having problems with styling in the iframe, copy imagepicker.tpl.php into your theme's directory and tweak it there. This works with the latest versions only.
imagepicker does not work with the upload area set to 'private'

6.x-2.x is now stable, please read the release notes before applying as an upgrade to an existing system. This is an initial stable release of version 2 and contains many new features especially on the administration side. 5.x-2.x now also available, it has much the same features as 6.x-2.x

  • Search in browse and list pages.
  • Enhanced theming support.
  • Original upload is now saved as is and kept separately from generated files.
  • Watermarks, see #523164: Watermark feature. Optionally global or per-user. Inspired by the watermark module
