 * I would like to know how to make it so that by default after uploading an image
   that it selects the full size version and not the thumbnail. im assuming i would
   do something with the inline-uploading
 * thanks

 * I know were not supposed to bump our own threads but im going to give it one 
   last shot on this…. I really want this done for a friend of mine’s blog. since
   even if you do select ful size image it never is and you always have to remove
   the width of 128 and height of 96

 * The difference when you select thumbnail or original is that for thumbnail it
   will place in the post a small size file (e.g. 4KB) while for the original it
   will put the origial file size (let’s say 34KB).
    Unfortunately BOTH will have
   a “physical” (=px) size of 128×96… which is supposedly(?) protecting users against
   themselves: not letting to upload a 2000x2000px pic into the admin area and/or
   post to destroy their layout 😉 [it’s not my idea, I’m just quoting what I’ve
   heard]
 * If the user has RTE enabled, after placing the pic in the post, they can click
   on the image and drag its corners to re-size it.
    If RTE is enabled, they will
   have to modify the px values manually.

 * so there is no way of editing any files to get around this, she is used to already
   editing her files to fitting right in w/ her template w/o stretching it as we
   just updated her blog from 1.5

 * You may want to try this “old-style” plugin:

 * Well I was able to edit the inline uploading file to remove the size it puts 
   on it after you choose the original image. so that is alot better 🙂

 * I use the Iimage Browser plugin. It allows me to upload a picture and then manipulate
   how I want to display it. You can show the uploaded image full size, text link
   to a new page with the full size image, thumbnail, thumbnail link to a new page
   with the full size and even define custom actions.
