It would be nice if we could dynamically upload images to the Igition image library. We would like to be able to allow the user to browse to an image file anywhere on their computer and upload it to the image library, then we can set the new image to a background for example.

Thanks,  
Bob

This is an interesting feature request. As of now, you should be able to accomplish the task with some scripting and storing images as BLOBs in your database.

That is a good suggestion. I will try that.

Thank you.
