I know it's totally 2007 to rip on the Flickr Uploader 3.x, but damn, this is totally broken.

Note that there is no Upload button anywhere on this screen shot. Where's the upload button? Nowhere. I had to take a photo out and drop it back in to make the upload button reappear.

I'm not sure how I made the upload button disappear, it has something to do with the wackadoo window that it brings up when you authorize the application.

It just makes me wonder, does anybody beta test anymore? Look, I'll admit it, I don't. But I'm not Yahoo.

Today's been tough. I've been trying to get a podcasting system set up here at Writelarge.com, because I'd like to dust off my podcast and start reading my stories again.
To that end, I posted a copy of "Origins of Shame" over in the "Golden Era Classics" book.

I made a great post for one of Jeni's new podcast episodes, called "Jeni talks about stuff." If you're subscribed in an RSS-catcher, you're already soaking in it.

Drupal kind of rocks for Podcasting. The software to upload and include a local or remote file in your RSS feed is pretty much handled all in the background, which is very nice if you're writing to a feed.

But I'd _also_ like my site to show a flash player on the main page with each post, too.The audio module does that quite well (if your file is encoded at the right sample rate). But an Audio post isn't as robust as a Blog post. It doesn't cross post to LiveJournal, for example. And the Audio post doesn't have nearly as nice of taxonomy control as a blog post. Maybe It's a configuration thing, but I can't seem to figure out how to embed the flash player in a blog post. I understand that I can attach a file here, and it'll link to it at the bottom of the post, but I really want more control. And if I want tweak the color of the player, I have to manually edit the php! I don't mind that, but it's not very user friendly. The podcasting plugins in WordPress were better.

If I can figure this out, and also recall how I did it after the fact, I've got my DrupalCampMilwaukeesession planned.
Any suggestions drupalers?
