Inspiration

• WordPress Media Flickr does more or less the same for Flickr

Bugs

• Loader image has bad transparency when used in the yellow-ish jquery UI modal box (white creepy edges)

Bugs / Feature requests

• Open tickets in BugZilla

---

• Edit inserted images
• Make images in Wysiwyg mode visual
• Add the image to featured picture instead of directly in the post (using post_image)
  • Implement this using checkbox, not as an insert in textarea. Use a hidden custom field (_pluginname_key), using some magic to fill wp_post_thumb (no overwrite)
• Add to WordPress plugin directory, blog about it, do more PR :)
