2009/9/7 22:31 I'm with Urban: looks promising!

If you are thinking on using preloads please say in what places we are needing hooks so we can deliver it before 2.4 final.

Thanks.

2009/9/7 23:09 Congratulations - it does look promising!

One comment - personally I would prefer to have all "author credit/advertisement" in the "About" tab. As you look into older modules, the developers in the past, IF they put any links to their Websites (besides the source code), it was in the About Tab, or via a small button at the bottom.

This is the second module where I see a "oversized", "in your face" logos and advertisement, and personally I hope, we'll go away from it. Everybody deserves a credit for their work, but let's do it in nice and humble way.

2009/9/8 2:06 @Trabis,

thanks a lot for comments & offer. At the momment, these screnshots are to show that we're under test before go far away.

@Mamba,

many thanks too ! We're really exciting doing this, testing features & more.

One comment - this is not a module, it´s a new one image manager. All oversized logos (none here) & advertisement you see over screenshots are a fast "watermark" made with Paint (fast, easily... for people like me), hehehe. It only looks a link called
Celseven under the last line, at bottom, no more. We try to learn every step we do, please, be patience. We have all time to do great things, remember it.

Anyway, we´re starting with it, it´s the right time for suggestions, new ideas, criticize (bad & good welcome ) and all you wish into a image manager.

I think this "image manager" could be a "media manager", but time, patience & knowledge

Celseven will be some busy next four months. We´re developing many projects at same time & really we need more free time, anyway, we will continue with this until finalize, hope fore 2009 ends.

thanks !!! May it will be an upgrade, i can't promise anything

@sabahan,

it's not the same like this. They use ImageMagick with standard sizes (indeed i use this hack over HispaXoops, not for much time) & we´re using over GD2 libraries. I think you mean a similar visual graphs... maybe, but both works really very different & xSSiM it's trying to be Super Simple

Thanks all for comments, suggestions, requests.... all welcome (cold beers for me allowed)
