Anyone willing to integrate it and get paid. Im also looking for a routine that resizes the server-side picture on upload, please send me price and time suggestion via PM. Thanx.

I was able to insert the code for the uploader and got it to appear on any form on any page. The question I guess would be how to actually insert it , I did it on firebug. Just copied and pasted the html and java like this. Right under the last page form
div class= Buttons. I added spaces between the < > so they would show. Remove them if you wish to test this or copy a fresh one off the source.

< div class="AttachFileWrapper AttachmentWindow" spawned="true" >
   < div class="AttachFileLink" >
      < a href="javascript:void(0);" >Attach a file< /a >
      < div class="CurrentUploader" >< form name="frm53247_form" id="frm53247_form" target="frm53247" enctype="multipart/form-data" classname="FileUpload" method="POST" action="/post/upload/UploadAttachment_1" >< input type="file" name="UploadAttachment_1" id="UploadAttachment_1" rel="frm53247_form" style="opacity: 0; ">

Maybe something like this could work by adding the function to the upload plugin?

The idea here is to add the controller for that form wether it is conversations controller or messages controller not sure...

 /**
    * DrawAttachFile function.
    * 
    * Helper method that allows the plugin to insert the file uploader UI into the 
    * Conversation Forms.
    *
    * @access public
    * @param mixed $Sender
    * @return void
    *//
 

  public function DrawAttachFile($Controller) {
      if (!$this->IsEnabled()) return;
      if (!$this->CanUpload) return;
      
      echo $Controller->FetchView($this->GetView('attach_file.php'));
   }


 /**
    * ConversationsController_BeforeConversationRender_Handler function.
    * 
    * @access public
    * @param mixed $Sender
    * @return void
    *//
  


 public function ConversationsController_BeforeConversationRender_Handler($Sender) {
      // Cache the list of media. Don't want to do multiple queries!
      $this->CacheAttachedMedia($Sender);
   }
  
  
   /**
    * CacheAttachedMedia function.
    * 
    * @access protected
    * @param mixed $Sender
    * @return void
    */
 

  protected function CacheAttachedMedia($Sender) {
      if (!$this->IsEnabled()) return;
      
      $Conversation = $Sender->Data('ConversationData');
      $ConversationIDList = array();
      
      if ($Conversation && $Conversation instanceof Gdn_DataSet) {
         $Conversation->DataSeek(-1);
         while ($Conversation = $Conversation->NextRow())
            $ConversationIDList[] = $Conversation->ConversationID;
      } elseif ($Sender->Conversation) {
         $ConversationIDList[] = $Sender->ConversationID = $Sender->Conversation->ConversationID;
      }
      if (isset($Sender->Conversation) && isset($Sender->Conversation->ConversationID)) {
         $ConversationIDList[] = $Sender->Conversation->ConversationID;
      }

nice start - if you want to proceed since you seem to thrive on this.

take a look at both the current fileupload plugin (and take what you need), then study

applications/conversations

and study the methods and controllers and events that you can use, and create your own new plugin, since what you are doing will be sufficiently different that it seems worthy of a totally new addon (and that way you can isolate any issues you have with plugin, by disabling it).
Make sure you give all methods, functions, etc totally new names so as not to create conflict with the original fileupload plugin since both will likely be used at the same time).

test your new plugin first as well as you can and them add it to the repository,

@peregrine

you mean make a new plugin from this called conversation upload? hmm I am not sure I am good enough to succeed but I will take a stab , why the hell not ? The worst that can happen is it won't work
