Drag & drop files into drupal site? Does anyone know of a module that allows to drag files from users computer into a target area in site (like in gmail or wordpress)?
ideally this would work with Image and other modules to insert the file "correctly" into drupal, save uploader info and allow adding meta data for file (like in the wordpress media area).
I've tried several solutions using the Media module with Plupload with drag and drop capability, but I have never gotten them to work the way I want. I don't like the way Media handles files and even though I can bulk upload them into the Media area, when I want to connect them to an individual node, I still have to select them individually with an awkward media browser. Not a fan.

However, I have been VERY pleased with Multiupload Imagefield Widget (requires: Multiupload Filefield Widget). It works with a standard Image field, no need to change your content structure or do anything weird. All you need to do is edit the Widget Type on your Image field and change it from Image to Multiupload. 

It will let you use the standard Image field upload, but you'll be able to select multiple images at once and upload them all with one click.
