I was curious if there was anyone who might be attending the next SEADUG meeting willing to listen to some questions about CCK image fields or someone on the list has a good link.
We have it setup and working great under Drupal 6 but I am curious about options (if any exist) to avoid having to upload the same image over and over for different nodes. I want to investigate the best method for making a library or set of images available to the editors for populating these fields. Or at least a good workaround.

We're talking Drupal 6? Look
We're talking Drupal 6? Look at http://drupal.org/project/filefield_sources, that's probably going to be at least a starting point.
Also, checkout
Also, checkout http://drupal.org/project/media and http://drupal.org/project/imce. I believe filefield_sources mentioned above works with imce.
That looks very promising
Ah, this looks like what I am looking for ... I kept doing searches but felt as if I was roaming in a circle of links that didn't quite fit what I needed. This however looks like the answer I need.
Thanks.
Thanks for the additional ideas
I wish I could try out Media on our site. It is on my list to try out on our test site for Drupal 7 migration.
We use IMCE for other elements on the site so I will be very happy if IMCE and File Field Sources talk together.
