   Hi -

   I've creating tumblr style custom post types for video, photo, quote etc.,

   How do I use my default post categories for them, as the different post types could be appearing in the same category?

   You might want to look at Post_Formats first.

   no , I need other custom types as well. Post formats is too limited.

   I think i found it -
   'taxonomies' => array('category')

   added to register_post_type

   Any idea how I get the custom post types to appear in archives.php?

   This seems to work for both archives and categories - is this the right way to do this? (It's in functions.php)

   function my_get_posts( $query ) {
   
   	if ( is_home() || is_category() || is_archive() && false == $query->query_vars['suppress_filters'] )
   		$query->set( 'post_type', array( 'post', 'quotes' ) );
   
   	return $query;
   }
