Personaly, I enjoy the new uploading system. It seems to be suitable for the
end users of the wordpress websites I build and who have no technical
knowledge of html. So going back to the old way is not what I want.
The only problem is the fact that the original size insertion and the image
attachment are not working as they did in some older nightly builds.
I would like to be able to use the feature as described in Andy's post on
http://andy.wordpress.com/2005/12/21/new-theme-feature-mime-icons/
I found some conversations in the forum where some said it was going to be
fixed. Ryan, is that true ?

Yes, I too concur that I find the uploading features in 2.0, while quite
advances, is not adaptable to my current needs and will cause a bit of
difficulty for me were I to switch to it. Is there any solution to restore
the old functions with plugins, and perhaps throw in a few more "advanced"
features?
Thanks.

The uploading change has been the main reason I haven't yet upgraded
my blog to 2.0, so I wrote a plugin that restores the old uploading

Put me in for a "ditto" on not upgrading due to the upload changes.
While 2.0 is, in general, a huge step forward for WP, the upload issue
is a huge sticker for me.
I'm working on a plug-in that makes heavy use of uploads and because of
2.0's forced file-structure, I've had to write my own uploading methods.
(However, your plug-in looks like it'll do a much better job than my
hack.)
I know some people have an aversion to adding options to WP, but is
there any reason why the ability to use the old upload file structure
isn't an option?
Sorry if I'm rehashing any old discussion - I've been out for a while.

P.S. To balance out the negative, let me just say that the new user
roles permission system rules. That's saved me a world of trouble.
