Great package! It was exactally what I needed. Unfortunatly I had to upgrade to 6 (not my decision) and so I wait excitedly for your updated package.
As part of your new package, have you given any thought to providing a way to strip out EXIF or other metadata from jpeg files on upload? Both from a 'privacy' standpoint, but also from a 'saving disc space' standpoint this might be a really exciting feature that I don't think any other package addresses.
Just a thought... Thanks again for all the great work!
Version 1.1 for Umbraco 6 is now released. Have not had a chance to look at removing exif yet but when the image gets compressed/downscaled the exif is also removed in the process.
Excellent! I will go and grab the 1.1 version right now and get things humming along again!
Regarding the EXIF data, that is good that it is removed during the compress/downscale process, but if I read your post correct, an image that is uploaded that does not need to be compressed/downscaled (say an already small image) would not have the EXIF data removed. I just want to make sure I am understanding things correctly so that I can tell my users the correct information.
Yes that is correct. If the imagefile is smaller than your set triggersize, or the image-dimensions are smaller than your set targetwidth and allowupscale is set to false, the image is not touched.
Suggestion for added 'feature'

Glad you like the package :)
