 * Cache Images plugin does not work. I could not see how to activate it. It does
   not have a setting page, neither works automatically on hot-linked images. There
   is no instructions for it in the plugin page.

 * I look for a plugin which is capable of image caching from flickr image. If this
   one doesn’t work, have you find an other (a good one) ?
 * Thanks for your answer 🙂

 * It works, but the function is hidden under “tools” – “remote images”, dunno why.
   But not finding options and settings pages is soooooo damn annoying. I wish every
   plugin had a “to the settings” link in the plugins listing….
 * This is a major (and almost the only) flaw in wordpress.

 * Why it needs to be under “Settings” since there aren’t any settings? It’s just
   a tool which needs to be run once or occasionally so it is under right submenu.
 * BTW, this plugin just got complete rewrite, it should be working better then 
   ever.

 * This plugin imported all of my images, unfortunately it didn’t change any of 
   the links in the posts, they all still point to blogger?!? Any ideas on how to
   fix that?

 * Actually, I’ve told a lie. The image URLs are fine but the links surrounding 
   the images (to open a larger version) still point to Blogger. I was hoping to
   get the larger versions in and have control over them too.

 * Did you have thumbnails from Blogger which were pointing to larger versions of
   those images? If that is a case, Cache Images won’t cache large images since 
   they were actually not used in posts, it is just a link to them. Only images 
   that are used in posts (in img tags, eg. `<img href="http://example.com/pic.jpg"/
   >`) are cached.

 * Yes, it’s just larger versions of those images. Any idea how to get those across
   as well? Thanks.

 * You will need to change code of Cache Images. But I’m not 100% sure that this
   will work since it depends were same rules followed when images were added to
   posts.
