Greetings!

I've been using de.linkm.newsticker for my moblog[1]
The old moblog upload procedure I've outlined[2] worked well
with my Nokia's crappy camera.

The images were processed using datatype_image, with thumbnail
shown on the image list and index pages, and the full-size
image shown in the details page and RSS feed.

However, today I bought a new K700i mobile phone[3] which has
a better camera. The new camera can take 640x460 images[4] which
are obviously too big for both my layout and the RSS feed. So
the question is what would be the best approach here:

~  * Hack datatype_image to support a third copy of the image,
~    "original" (or "view"?)
~  * Simply scale down the view image, losing potentially quite
~    a bit of detail in the process
~  * Switch from de.linkm.newsticker to net.siriux.photos

What do you think?

My current upload script doesn't use datamanager directly, but
instead tries to create Midgard objects directly in a way compatible
with datamanager. So in any case I will have to hack that script,
too. Would be cool to make it use datamanager, but this might
be non-trivial as it runs outside MidCOM environment.
