bhHey Guys,
I just threw together my first plugin. I am using Twitter Tools to pull in a Twitter feed into Wordpress. It was perfect for my needs except for one thing - I wanted Twitpic URL's to display as an image instead of the link URL. I mostly borrowed code from different places, but it works. I am posting it here just in case it helps someone. If anyone wants to improve the code I would be super grateful! (I am not a programmer, so please excuse any obvious mistakes)
Cheers
