@Cash Indeed. That increases the importance of substitutes or commercial availability of the plugins. In any case, if I have a live site running and making money, I believe I should be able to afford full or partial sponsoring the effort of upgrading such fundamental plugins. This does not seem to be happening now. Hopefully that will be the case when elgg is used more and more in live environments.
BTW, I have downloaded Brettp's fork from https://github.com/brettp/Tidypics and renamed it as TidyPics. So far so good. I did not hit any issues. This is a very fine plugin. regards.
Elgg is used in plenty of live environments. Either they are used a custom Tidypics with Elgg 1.8, they are not using Tidypics at all (think of all the Enterprise users who don't need photo sharing), or they are using Elgg 1.7 still. Obviously, it is in the best interest of Elgg to have a solid photo sharing plugin. The core developers have discussed bringing Tidypics into core. No movement in that direction yet.
@Cash, wish if tidypics or any other plugin for elgg can come out with ajax and users can enjoy real picture sharing on social network, same as facebook photos plugin and few more softwares which I won't mention here their name :)
