 * Is it possible to have this upload trigger a thumbnail creation as well as the
   original file?

 * Hey,
 * Im 99% sure that the upload handler can create thumbnails.
 * If I remember right I turned it off, or didnt configure it to simplify the plugin
   and get me through the testing/debugging/release.
 * I’m willing to give it a shot, or if you can work it out I’ll add it into the
   plugin. But the one thing I can’t get my head around is how to manage the settings
   and present the thumbnail. So if you have a public demo of what you want it to
   look like to the user that’ll be great. Or a description of how it should work?
 * I’m thinking, like you said in that other post –
    - Instead of the user seeing green and the file name, they see a thumbnail. 
      Or maybe it should be thumbnail with the filename below?
    - In the backend, a ‘enable thumbnail for images’ option – this then triggers
      logic that says ‘if it’s an image, do as above. And maybe some options about
      the size of the thumbnail?
 * I would like to do some maintenance to this plugin, the jQuery is waaaayy messy.
   So I’ll probably wait until I’ve got the time to do this as well.
 * Let me know if you can figure it out though.

 * I was thinking, when you upload an image, hooking into the WP image sizes, so
   you can create each image size your site uses. Though since these are not part
   of the media library, that may become difficult to manage…

 * Hey,
 * So hooking into the WP media library will be a lot of work (not something I’ve
   done before) — but in version 1.2.0 I’ve added the ability to control the uploadhandler’s
   native ability to do thumbnails.
 * You’ll find the options in the Ajax Upload settings page.
 * What Im not sure about is if thumbnails should be presented in email notifications,
   generated PDFs (if using the Gravity PDF plugin) and the entry editor in the 
   backend.
 * What are you thoughts?
 * At the moment it doesnt and it kind of feels incomplete. I’m leaning towards –
   if the user filling out the form sees thumbnails in the form then the administrator
   viewing the entry in the back end should too.
 * If you enable the thumbnails you’ll most likely need to add some CSS to your 
   theme to make them display properly. Not something I can predict or provide because
   it depends wholly on the CSS in your theme
