In reply to: Add Image from URL, but store as uploadOh, I think it’s pretty clear that it bugs the hell out of you 😛 And I agree, pictures shouldn’t be taken without checking the permissions first.
As long as it’s on the list, I’m happy. Not in a hurry 🙂
Sounds great! 🙂

In reply to: Add Image from URL, but store as uploadBrowser permissions to my desktop? That shouldn’t have to do anything with this? Whole point is that the image should not have to go through my desktop, but rather directly from source to my upload directory.
Wouldn’t need to call wget and why would my browser have to do this? I’m talking about PHP code running on the server. Could use cURL, fsockopen or something else. Many options. I could get the url to the image, give it to the upload tool, and it could do an ajax request to the script that would download the file, put it in the upload directory, et cetera.
Not that complicated, but yes, probably more complicated than what you have right now. Especially since you already have what you have :p
Anyways, I’m not sure I find “would make it easier for Joe Dumb to steal an image” a good reason for not adding a feature… I mean… shouldn’t you just disallow all media then? Why is the image I upload from my computer less likely to be copyrighted than one from the internet? Yes, I have my own pictures on my computer, but most pictures I put on my blog are from the internet.

In reply to: Add Image from URL, but store as uploadHow would it be easier to steal copy written images? Wouldn’t be any harder or easier in my opinion… Difference is that you would have to copy the link to an image instead of the image itself.
Not sure what you mean by copy to itself and then upload to WP. As long as you can upload images to WordPress, you can at least write them to a folder. You would just download it directly to that folder instead of moving it from the tmp directory (where I think it ends up after an upload?). The download part I know isn’t supported everywhere, but most places I think some sort should be supported. Like cURL or something like that. Could just be disabled if the server didn’t support it.
@ogggeee, That will remove a lot more than just the ‘by Author’ text though…

In reply to: [Speedy Smilies] [Plugin: Speedy Smilies] Smilies not visible!I experienced the smileys being set to 1px height and width, which of course leaves only a single “invisible” white pixel on the page. I added this to my stylesheet to fix it:
.wp-smiley, #content .wp-smiley { max-height: 16px; width: 16px; height: 16px; }
