Comment (by ryanscheuermann):

 Here are the features again with correct Wiki formatting:

  * Ability to sort by Date and Name (ASC & DESC)
  * Filtering by 4 options: Images, Files, Music, Video (does mime-type
 matching)
  * Paging
  * Switches the Preview based on toggled options in a manner that is
 visible [not hidden by popup] (see Toggle More Options screenshot - shows
 Gallery thumbnail instead of regular thumbnail)
  * Creates an additional "center-square" cropped thumbnail (Gallery) (this
 is configurable to crop the top, center, bottom, or simply resize to a
 smaller setting)
  * Automatically resizes the original image based on an option (saves my
 clients from uploading huge photos (as in resolution-big) direct from
 their digital cameras)
  * Filters uploads into subdirectories based on mime-type (images, files,
 music, video)
  * Options page that allows you to change the visible options (you can
 tell it to, by default, link to the page using the thumbnail, and then
 only give the end user an option to change alignment - this feature is
 wholly designed for my non-savvy clients - better to make the decision for
 them than confuse with too many options)
  * Intense separation of JS and HTML (basically, the loops output 2 JS
 arrays for each attachment: metadata and options, and then when clicking
 "Insert File", there is a JS function that evals the chosen options to
 create the appropriate HTML) - it was designed to easily alter/hook the
 "insert HTML" methods because sometimes I use Markdown syntax instead of
 HTML.
  * Unfortunately, the downside is that I never coded a noscript method,
 but it's entirely within reason to add this ability.
