whre's the integration with image.module? I used it successfully in D5, now in D6 I can't find it :(

it was intentionally dropped during the upgrade.

ok, I believe there was a good reason.

but is there a workaround?

I mean, it's kinda silly creating a custom content type, when you already have image nodes, simply because that's the only way to integrate with imagefield at the moment.

what I mean is, this looks like it's what's best for developers (but not necessarily easy, mind you) without ever taking the user's needs in consideration. and there was a big thread about this in D5.

cheers,
Luciano

Re-opened (a year later) http://drupal.org/node/231622#comment-3048730
We need two patches - one for image.module to start using hooks to generate its derivatives, and another, here in imagecache to publish and respond to those requests.
Big(ish) patch for both projects currently active over in image.module.
We need to get these both in simultaneously for there to be any effect. Although both patches are non-invasive and won't break anything, they are neutered if the other one doesn't happen.
