John & Jim,

>From testing out your heroku installed version, here are my thoughts:

- It took me awhile to find the plus sign.  Maybe between the header
row and the attachments themselves there could be a "+ Add" that, when
clicked, could expand the form in place kinda like you do now.
Otherwise, I think it could slam to the left against the "Attachments
(count)"
- I think the (-) image is too prominent, being the first thing you
see when scanning the line.  Removing attachments is probably the
least common action, so I think it should be somewhere with lower
importance. Maybe the order could be: Thumbnail, Filename, Magnifier
icon for view, minus icon for delete, then description below
- Given that the whole image row is draggable, it'd be nice if I could
drag it into the body text and drop it to have the radius tags put in
that cursor spot
- When adding a new file...
- - The (-) for cancel is kinda floating in space.
- - I don't think the average user would expect to hit "Save and
Continue Editing" just to upload the file.
- - It might be most reasonable to have a fourth line with an "Upload"
button and a "cancel" text link
- - I wonder if the file selection/upload wouldn't best be handled in
a modal dialog

Overall I really like the functionality, so apologies if this feedback
sounds overly critical!  I look forward to your work being rolled into
the official page_attachements repo.

- Jeff
