imagefield

I just had a brainstorm this week for writing an Image API module, and see that dopry beat me to the punch :) Does anyone know about the future plans for this? Specifically, I was thinking about writing a form element for images, similar to how imagefield handles forms, because I've had to replicate that for a couple of instances, and think it would be better as an API, rather than duplicating code.

Thanks,

Hello,

I've created this new Trading group. My goals are similar to those of the Stock group, so I'm posting this to you guys as well.

I'm a trader/programmer who has set up a private site meant to eventually manage a little fund for my friends and family. My current setup allows me to input and browse trades I make, so that I'll later be able to track my progress. Here's what I'm currently using (I have done no custom programming yet):

taxonomy: I currently have "market" and "system" categories. These are heirarchical, so I could have a market called "GBPUSD" with parent "Forex". A system could be a particular setup or signal within a larger system, for example "spinning top" within "chart patterns". I'll be using these taxonomies to browse my trades and judge which trading systems work with which markets, etc. I want to eventually be able to do all kinds of statistical analysis based on these categories.

Howdy,

looks like one of the most wanted features of Conent Construction Kit (CCK) are teasers (short presentation text of nodes with eventually a picture, showing on the front page).

Urging this feature as many others for couple of my websites, I digged Drupal.org a bit looking for a solution. Unfortunately, teaser functionality seems still on it's first steps and many different approaches can be found (i write below the interesting Drupal.org nodes i found).

QUESTION: i would be interested in hiring / co-sponsoring a programmer to develop teaser functionality for CCK. Can any expert Drupal coder give a hint on what approach is more reliable/correct/better, so to take the right path and spend well any effort?

Firstly, hi all in this group...

A little background from me - I've been programming websites for a few years and recently had a chance to meet Rob Douglass through my work. My eyes have been fully opened to Drupal and its potential! Before drupal I coded sites by hand as I always believed CMS's to be restrictive and blubbery. Although drupal isn't particularly lightweight, its certainly not restrictive. My first (personal) project was to create a challenge database for a forum I regularly attend... This produced DBP-Site. I learned a lot from this such as a code highlighting module which, at some point, I'm going to progress and submit to the module base here (it should work as a more generic highlighter too).
