Hello Sir,
I am just wondering if you could implement category for your news plugin. The "Category" Menu should be be visible on the front end, when a news post is being prepared. Category should have a pull down menu from where a category can be chosen - like - Sports
Weather
Breaking News
Developing News
Kindly please take a look at this link on my site where the category is searchable, but you can map or point each category to an array of pre-loaded images from a "categoryimage" image container it would be really cool.
https://www.myhotfb.com/code_test/newscategory.php
But if this complicates things I would request you the following at min:
On the configuration / back side you have declared the news icon as "static" (using this term for a lack of better word), where choosing an image icon would result in automatic change for all the previously posted news.
So rather than having it there why not make a small change on the front end side
As shown in the above image for ur news plugin, you have a "Choose Photo Option". Can you make it point to a image container or just point to your plugin's existing folder "graphics".
This way every time we post a news we can choose appropriate news icon and as different people have different category requirements they can upload their images based on their needs.

All your suggestion are interesting among other improvements I have in mind.
If you could fund them I could build them faster and share back to the community. Otherwise I will add them according my limited free time.
Alternatively you are free for code contribution at https://github.com/nlybe/Elgg-News
