Your comment regarding file deletion is interesting. Sometimes I delete
a card when I'm reviewing (it it's a poor image for example and I
consider it of limited value), in the knowledge that I have 'orphaned'
the image file and will need to tidy up later. It would actually suit me
for the image file to be deleted too, but it's no great hardship.
Actually, I had the mistaken impression from our previous thread that you used
these media files for other uses then Mnemosyne too, and then deleting that file
would give you problems elsewhere.
It's quite possible that I did give that impression. I can't recall. I
intend to (but don't at present) regularly sync them to my phone so that
I have a database of botanical images for reference. The most important
factor for me (and one of the reasons I wasn't keen on anki) was to
retain meaningful filenames and folder hierarchy. As the system for
botanical nomenclature (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_classification ) is hierarchical
it lends itself perfectly to a hierarchical folder structure. I've a
feeling that I originally used full sized images but now I resize them,
with a further resizing that I do on-the-fly using a script depending on
where I plan to review, adding a height=500 tag to each image card.

I could just as well delete all orphaned pictures upon card deletion then, no
need to mess with exta plugins or menu options.
I'd be happy with that behaviour as it fits in with my workflow. I
delete 'bad' cards that I have erroneously attached to a poor quality
image, so it would work out fine (for me). But the extra overhead of
deleting the file manually (by pasting the filename from Ctrl-E) is not
too heavy so I'm not worried either way.
