I've been tinkering with this script http://www.shift8creative.com/projects/agile-uploader/index.html ... very customisable and is plugged into JQuery

Very handy for users uploading photos who otherwise might be sending you 5 MB photos that are going to get shrunk server-side anyway.

That is a stroke of genius.  finally a pretty robust solution to stop idiots complaining about slow scripts when they upload snaps from their 25mp cameras.

Can see us using this a lot.  I have just sent it on to one of my developers to convert to a zend framework plugin.  Thanks. :)

Uh! Sounds REALLY interesting. Wanna sell a copy once he's done? :)

No problem.  You can have it once done.  Not sure how big the dev queue is at the moment, but I'll pop a link back here when it is done.

Yep... it seems easy enough to customise, the PHP script accepting the files needs to be worked on but the client-side stuff is fine.

There are a couple more out there that include the flash source files but this particular one seemed to be the most well-rounded solution.
