[wp-testers] Upload and use of Images

[MENJ]

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.
