I wanted to give it more stars, but I just can't at this time.
I installed this plugin and found it incredibly useful for my needs. Unfortunately, after using it for a couple of days, I discovered a rather annoying bug that is easy to reproduce. I reported that bug in the support forum. 10 days later and there is no reply from the plugin author. Looking at some other posts in the support forum, it appears the plugin author does not reply in a timely manner, if at all. A couple days after reporting that bug, I discovered another possible bug with this plugin, which I also reported as a reply to my first bug report. I am not 100% sure that this plugin caused the second bug; however, there are no other plugins installed that have anything to do with manipulating the details related to the images.
