An concept idea to make adding pictures a lot easier.. if it works.
I've described it (and other stuff) on my not-quite-launched TidBits
space<http://tidbits.tiddlyspace.com/#[[Autoadd%20pictures%20to%20tiddlers]]>,
but here's a copy:
Inserting of images in TW is typically a very manual task, particularly
> locally stored ones. Here's an idea making it automatic (well...) :
>
> Keep a local folder (computer or cloud) with //all// pictures for a
> specific TW. When you save those pictures there, you save them with the
> name of the tiddler that you'll want them to appear in.
>
> Then, in //tiddler template//, perhaps at bottom, theres a
> {{{[img[localpath/tiddlername]]}}} where the localpath is hard coded but
> the tiddlername is a generic 'current' reference.
>
> For multiple pics in one tiddler save pics in that local folder using eg.
> format //name (1), name (2)// etc. In the tiddler template there's a script
> that //if// the link {{{[img[localpath/tiddlername]]}}} exists, then also
> check {{{...tiddlername+1}}} etc. (The suffix //"_(#)"// is Windows default
> when a filename already exists in a folder. I assume other OS'es use
> similar solution.)
>
> The main advantage is that you can save pics directly to you folder
> (always the same one). There's no(?) extra hassle other than naming the
> image upon saving it - which you're always asked to do anyway!
>
> No image (or file for that matter!) with the current tiddlers name =
> nothing displayed. And the idea does of course not exclude common/manual
> {{{[img[..]]}}} use!

Thoughts? Could anybody help out to implement this?
I think handling images (and videos etc) in TW is very under exploited
considering the *extreme *popularity of these features in other services
and web tools.
