Hello,  
I’ve been searching on the forums for my particular answer but cannot  
find anything specific regarding my question.

I am pretty new to RoR, and work on a Mac OSX 10.4 with the latest ruby  
and rails versions.

The project I’m working on requires an image up-loader to upload images  
and sort the uploaded images relating to specific sizes.

1. what image up-loader should I use for rails 2+ and…

2. Is there an image up-loader that will sort images by size? or how  
could I go about doing that?

# Thanks very much for your help in advance

Paperclip gives you the functionality of uploading images and storing  
them as different sizes.
