This is from my trip to Alaska last summer. I broke my clavicle a little behind where I was standing when I took this.

Dasher 0.1
Dasher is a plugin that replaces the WordPress Dashboard with something more suitable for a multi-user blog with users who aren’t interested in WordPress development news. It includes an example welcome message in a separate file for easy modification.
Dasher is pretty simple (crude?). If you’re looking for something more feature-ful you probably want X-Dashboard.
Download dasher.zip.
Filez is a derivative of Photopress that adds a popup file uploader/browser to the Quicktags toolbar. I find it’s useful for uploading and making links to things like zipped plugin files.
Installation and use: Extract the archive in your WordPress plugins folder. Activate the plugin. Create a folder named ‘files’ under ‘wp-content’ and make it writable. You can give it a different name or put it somewhere else but you’ll need to configure some options at Options:Filez. Upload and browse files using the Filez button on the Quicktags toolbar. Manage your uploaded files at Manage:Filez.
Download Filez 0.1: filez.zip.
Feedback request: If you use Photopress and try Filez, let me know if you prefer the single-button-launched multi-purpose popup tool in Filez better than the separate buttons and popups in Photopress.
Photopress 0.7.3
After trying the last release out on my blog with about 400 or so photos I realized the mass image editor needed a paging function. So now it lists 50 images at a time. I think some sorting would be nice next.
Deleting an image now deletes the original too. You can also set an option to always allow deleting, even if an image is used in a post.
Installation is a little different now. All the files are in a single folder – I learned that WordPress will find plugins files in folders. Just extract the archive in your plugins folder. Create a “photos” folder under wp-content and make sure it’s writable. If you’re upgrading you should delete your old plugin files first, at the very least photopress.php.
Download Photopress 0.7.3: photopress.zip OR photopress.tar.gz
Update: Mindcore found a bug where if you’ve upgraded from 0.5 then upgrading between 0.7 versions would re-run the import function, replacing any new data you’ve entered with the old data. This is now fixed.
