Wrapping a link around a renderable array for images in Drupal 7

I was asked a question about theming linked images and gave the wrong answer, that it was a known pain point, but it kept bugging me because i was pretty sure i was not remembering something. The failure of link render arrays i was thinking of is their use in item_list, but in fact there is a secret theme function that can be used to put linked images in a render array properly.

Thanks to the amazing Morbus Iff for documenting using theme_image_formatter in a render array:

Drupal and AtomPub

I want this for publishing from Tomboy to Drupal (data.agaric), as Tomboy and AtomPub already work together:

Ancient interest in the forums, and no response:

Sharing Content Between Drupal 7 sites with Views, XML, Feeds, and XPath Parser

after wasting untold hours with Deploy and Services modules, i switched to using views with xml export and Mitchell's xpath parser module on the intake side. Thing is magic, just wish he hadn't disappeared again and had done it in 1/10th the time it took me

Bloody magic, i imagine a lot from feeds, but it does taxonomy terms and images perfectly, and links in the url and title pieces, once it is all exported as plain text in xml (i was more comfortable with creating the dedicated feed than doing the HTML parsing)

On the source site, download the Views Datasource project

A WordPress Agency Moves Away from Wordpress

Despite being into Drupal and believing in the software and the community, one tends to know the faults of one's own software better than the faults of other software. So the image of WordPress is something that just works, and is able to do seamless upgrades version after version, etc.

But, obviously, it's not right for everything, and its fans can realize that, too.

Shaping Drupal's Future (presentation description)

Drupal does not belong to the Drupal Association. It does not belong to Node One, Phase Two, Chapter Three, Four Kitchens, Palantir, Acquia, or even Agaric. It does not belong to Dries— except the name. It belongs to you, and every other person who steps up to claim it, equally.

What does it mean to take ownership?
