I'm almost done with this rewrite.
It changes the way the plug-in works. It will still work from the "add" form, but it's really designed to work from the "modify" screen via an "upload" link.
I'm finishing up the admin portions tonight, and it should be ready tomorrow.
It will install over the 01.01.xx version, and should just be a major upgrade.
You'll need to add some new templates, and maybe make some changes, but the existing "add" templates will work as "is".
If you haven't used the mod before, the best way is to install it. There will be minor changes needed, but it will pretty much run "out of the box". YOu need to customize some of the display pages to your own format, but you won't have to edit the 'add' and 'modify' forms, as all new "attach_*" forms are installed.
Once a user uploads a link -- validated or not -- they can upload/attach a file or graphic to the link. The admin validates the link, but the attachments have to be validated in a separate program (actually, you can "manually" validate the image link, but you can't view the image in the admin (this is a limitation in the hooks available, and why I had to do it this way).
But, an admin/editor can validate images, or if the "user_mod" is enabled, if a user can modify their graphic as well.
The changes, obviouslyh, have to be in the link.html and detailed.html, and any other template you want to display the logo in. By using <%if%> tags in the templates, you can control what the user sees -- ie: a logged in user could see "more" about their links than a non-logged in, non-link owner, and an editor can see more as well.
I'll have specific details when I have the code ready for release, but it should be pretty significant. After that, the multi-attachment version will be worked on.
I won't really be adding more features to the 01.02 version, but will fix bugs, etc.
