Rick, nice work. Well done. I have integrated your earlier version in my CMS, and one of the issues I had was making the look and feel work with the look and feel of my own CMS. I thought it would have been a lot easier to integrate if all the colours and font definitions were in a style sheet, or if not, at least in a global variables file somewhere so they could be edited easily. Obviously I haven't seen the code for this new version, so I don't know if you've done that already, but it would be a good enhancement. I like the ajax stuff - it makes it a WHOLE lot cooler, and also far easier to use. I'm a bit old fashioned like that, but 'easy to use' is FAR more important to me than 'cool', but it's nice to have both.
Incidentally, my CMS is targetted at people who dont have much in the way of technical skills in IT, and they have no problems learning how to use CFFM. So that indicates it's a good design. If you'd like me to help you with the colours thing, just say the word. There's a tiny bug on your demo - when you click on a file, to modify it, then after going to the page where it allows you to resize, flip, rotate etc, if you click on 'cancel', the popup message says the changes have been committed.
