The major issue being that I can’t install it. 😊

I followed the instructions on the plugins homepage - like so :
1. I’ve uploaded it to the plugins directory
2. I added a directory called ‘sized’ inside the ‘images’ directory and set permission to chmod777
3. I created a ‘cache’ directory inside the ‘uploads’ directory (this step was NOT in the instructions on the plugins homepage, but I did find a post by the plugins author where he said that needed to be done… how bout adding that to your installation steps dude?!).

At this point, I’m thinking the plugin should show up in the EE control panel/dashboard (whatever they call it)... and I’d be able to activate it…? Sup?

I found the reason it wasn’t working…

The installation instructions from the plugin author weren’t very helpful despite the smiley face in the instructions denoting the ‘obvious ease of use’ riiiiiight : “1: put plug-in in plug-ins location 😊” What plugin location? HUH!? I’d assume the folder named ‘plugins’ because.. well… do I really have to explain? But it didn’t work.

I found a thread (http://ellislab.com/forums/viewthread/148004/) that said to put them in its own folder inside the “third_party” folder - which worked.

Goodbye half of my day.
