A little feedback, in case you decide to work on it some more. There's a somewhat serious problem. When you use the interface, it creates a 6 byte image file in the tiddlers folder. This works fine for the duration of the current node session. But when you restart node.js, the files inserted with [img[]] wikitext don't render -- they think they are dealing with a base64 image file.
Thanks!
