> I'm running a multi-user weblog... 
> Several people who run sub-weblogs don't understand HTML and are unlikely to learn it.
> The biggest problems I'm having are to do with inserting images:
> a) The usrs don't understand how to write an <img> tag or how to reference their images in a WYSIWYG edit.
> b) The users are uploading 5mpix images directly from a camera and inserting a giant image into the page.
> What I suggest is that you (I can help write it) add a "photo album" to each blog that will organize the images and also create scaled thumbnails. Allow the user to choose from the photo album instead of the files section.
> Stories:
> - Add a photo album to each sub-weblog.
> - Album should store photos in original size.
> - Inserting an image into a blog entry should scale the original image (possible to a predefined size but could also allow the user to specify the size)
