 * How is the best way to store my albums and photos on WordPress without having
   duplicates of the same image in different dimensions ?
 * Should I use the default WordPress media manager or should I go with the Nextgen
   gallery ?
 * From previous experience I have seen when I upload pictures to WordPress each
   picture will be saved on the server with 3 duplicates in different dimensions.
   Is there a way to just store the original image and one thumbnail ?
