Dear Chocco,
endusersharepoint article is an outstanding article. (am priviledged to see that many thanks for sharing this)
this is about edit in datasheet view of moss picture library.
sharepointkings article is about getting thumbnail (image sitting in moss picture library)view of image in browser. (nice though knowing this _t, _w).
Qustion still remains unanswered.
Dear Geowrian,
i do have software to convert any picture to .jpg.
but converting a picture to some other, compatible, format in memory..
how can i do this.. please elaborate on this.. ( picure file extention conversion or any other conversion via script if u know, please share  this atleast give me a start)..
 
 
 
any ideas guys..
I understand you have the software to convert the picture formats. I meant this type of process would have to be on the server, and then edit the XSLT to pass the image URLs to the filter instead of directly to the browser.

However, this is pretty much what can be done in theory - I'm not aware of anybody with such an implementation and it would likely be difficult to create it. More so than the amount of support I can provide. The closest thing I can see is a product by MediaRich:
http://www.equilibrium.com/eq_software/mediarich_for_sharepoint/mediarich_for_sharepoint_at_work/

Basically, it extends Sharepoint to add more features, especially for images and popular document formats. That tells my theory of how to do it via a filter is possible, but I don't have the expertise to actually create it. Maybe another expert with more Sharepoint software development skills can help you, but just be aware it's not a simple task and may be more work than you bargained for.
thanks Geowrian.
