Experimental project

This is a sandbox project, which contains experimental code for developer use only.

An add on for Media (2.x) and the Media Browser Plus module to handle a somewhat specific image publishing workflow. When JPEGs are uploaded via the FIle Entity module, the entity id is written into the JPEG IPTC metadata. If the image is then downloaded from the site for post-processing and uploaded again, the original image fields are transferred and they are replaced where used in other entities' file fields. Filters are also added for the Media Browser to assist in the workflow.

A demo video can be seen here: http://vimeo.com/ratliff/album-uploader.

** WARNING - By design, this module deletes files when an updated version of the JPEG is uploaded. **

It's recommended to use the DownloadFile module (http://drupal.org/project/download_file) in order to avoid the issue of browser image caching when downloading the file from Drupal.
