    Hello. This forum has helped me in the past and I was hoping I could get assitance one more time with a new problem I'm having. I'm currently in the middle of doing some new reviews that are very photo heavy and I'm looking for a plugin or plugins that will meet my needs. I spent the weekend trying to wade through the all the image plugins on the wordpress site, but since I'm not the most technical of people, I'm feeling a little overwhelmed.

    Namely this is what I need:

    1.) To be able to insert a bunch of images at once. Not as a gallery, just a mass insertion of photos so I don't have to wade through posting twenty to thirty images individually just so I can have editable space inbetween them to write comments or paragraphs.

    2.) be able to specify the max width or height of the "thumbnail" image when I'm placing it in a post. The default small, medium and large sizes that WordPress automatically picks for me are rarely in the sizes I need them to be.

    3.) Support lightbox or something similiar for the large. I installed Flexible Lightbox this past weekend and I'm quite pleased with that.

    It's very possible that WordPress already does all this and I just don't know it. Any help would be most appreciated. Thank you.

    Just to clarify, have you tried the built-in media uploader to the left of the screen?

    Micah,

    I have indeed been using the built-in media uploader and it's very useful. Unfortunately, it does do all the things I outlined in my post.
