 * First, I love this plugin, works great, gives me more flexibility, love that 
   I can browse for the image. Makes things easier for me and my clients.
 * The issue I have with this plugin is that I cannot edit the image information,
   I can only change the image. For example, I accidentally checked WordPress’ image
   alignment as right when I wanted it centered. I changed the dropbox below in 
   your plugin’s options but it didn’t change the right alignment and I couldn’t
   edit the image.
 * More importantly though is the location of the image. I develop sites on my localhost,
   then transfer everything to a review site ([http://somesite.com](http://somesite.com)),
   and finally to the client’s server once all is complete and approved.
 * There is no where for me to edit the location of the image, so I have to basically
   change the image on each site and re-add it. This gets to be cumbersome when 
   I have several images.
 * What is strange is that I tried to edit the database manually, since I have to
   do this for WordPress’ location and home url. But when I do this for the images
   I’ve setup in your program the widgets no longer appear. They are gone! I’ve 
   tried manually editing the table field, I’ve tried using a search and replace
   command, I’ve even tried editing the exported sql file manually, and each time
   it causes all the image-widgets I had setup in the sidebar to disappear.
 * An edit option would be great but if you could give me some insight as to why
   I can’t just edit the database that would be better. A quick search and replace
   is far quicker than editing each widget.

 * I tracked down the reason behind why I can’t just edit the database and change
   the URL. It has to do with the way WordPress stores it’s data using PHP Serialization.
 * There is a script that helps with migrating WordPress sites from one URL to another
   but it’s not made for end users and you need to make sure to make a backup copy
   of your data before running it:
