images

A truly slick configuration of Insert and Image Resize Filter would disable insert if the img tag is not available for the selected text format.

The safetext module began as an idea for an installation aid, but

Any anonymous or just-registered authenticated user should be able to access the filtered HTML format, if you so choose. Trusted (but non-editor and non-admin) user roles should be able to access filtered HTML plus, meaning with images, at the least.

says, get the latest dev release

Stella hasn't done an official release since June! (As of October 30.) But she has kept the amazing Lightbox2 up to date and working in the Drupal 6 dev branch; the latest development snapshot is from October 27 right now.

Looking for the drupal path to your current theme? It can be helpful if you're making a theme and, for a change, you want to link directly to

print theme('stylesheet_import', base_path() . path_to_theme() ."/modules.css");

For our purposes, something like:

<img src="<?php echo base_path() . path_to_theme() . "/sample.png"; ?>" />

Now I'm not sure that "." in echo will work. Feel free to test it out for us!
