in brief, I love that feature particularly because it saves so much time and effort (and thus avoid so many inherent human errors)
resizing pictures is something any dev can do in batch with any of the common free tools, my preferred being irfanview32
however, adding the pictures manually before each at a time was so time consuming..
and adding the sql code through phpmyadmin to avoid manual addition of each pic, was often associated with forgotten unseen (excel-eaten) apostrophes, commas, and so on.
