 * Was wondering if there’s an ETA for when the plugin will be made compatible with
   wp 3.5. Although it works with 3.5, it uses the old media uploader. Are there
   plans to move to the new media uploader? Understand that 3.5 came out just yesterday,
   but love the plugin and hoping it will be updated for 3.5.

 * I completely second that notion. I should never have updated 🙁

 * Thanks for the positive words about the plugin!
 * Since the WP 3.5 image update is supposedly reverse compatible, and none of our
   paying clients offered to pay for the upgrade, and no one has offered any fixes
   from the community, this has been relatively low on our priority list.
 * That said, I seem to be getting a number of bug reports that may or may not be
   actual conflicts with this upgrade. I’m eager to get them fixed but as yet no
   one has offerend any information to help me isolate the bugs and I can’t reproduce
   them myself.
 * Any help is appreciated. Otherwise, there’s not really an ETA, just a casual 
   effort to poke at this in my spare time.

 * My company is interested in paying for the upgrade. How can I contact you to 
   discuss a quote?

 * Have played around with this some more and the basic problem I’m having is getting
   the image uploader to allow animated gif files to work in the sidebar. used to
   work easily. A serious problem for our site. Image Widget can import the gif 
   but once the gif is saved, it stops being animated and only the first picture
   shows

 * Great news! We’ve got a beta of a 3.5+ compatible version of the widget. We need
   some qa testing. If you’re up for it, please install the latest development version
   of the image widget on your development site and try it out.
 * DO NOT INSTALL THIS ON YOUR PUBLIC SITE!
 * [http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/image-widget.zip](http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/image-widget.zip)
 * Things that we are particularly concerned with testing include:
    * Making sure
   that previously installed images don’t change. * Making sure that you can edit
   and update existing images as well as add new ones.
 * Thanks for the feedback in advance!

 * Thanks! I’ll have a chance Monday to test and will get back to you as soon as
   possible with any issues I run into.

 * [@dudekpj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dudekpj/), re the funding of this
   upgrade, we’re already $3500 into this upgrade and are doing it without any sponsors.
   If your company wants to pitch in, we’d be delighted, but obviously most of the
   work is now already done.
 * As it happens, we get very very few donations. Probably something on the order
   of $100 per year. But we do have a donation link set up all the same 🙂

 * FYI, no one has submitted any bug reports (aside from [@webaware](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webaware/)’
   s comment about SSL filters). For all those folks who have been commenting about
   wanting this upgraded… it would be very helpful if you could help with testing.

 * Everything looks good to me while testing. The only thing I noticed was that 
   the image attributes are no longer updated in the widget after an update. Although,
   when you first upload the image, the attributes populate the widget fields appropriately.
   For instance, the image title fills in the widget image title when the image 
   is first uploaded, but any updates to the image after that keep the original 
   title.

 * Found a small typo too, in image-widget.php, there’s text that says “Select and
   Image”. Needs changed to “Select an Image”

 * Thanks [@dudekpj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dudekpj/)!
 * The fact that all the fields don’t update is actually a feature. I’ve heard a
   lot of frustration around the fields always updating so we changed the js to 
   only update the fields if they are empty.
 * I’ve updated the typo. Great catch!!!

   working great!
