jpg OR JPG is why?(back to index)
what is with the ".jpg" choice for in the settings? i'm a little confused on why this is an option at all.

it should be - .jpg AND .JPG - by default

it would be even better if i could include .mov and .swf in folderblog. folderblog could give a generic icon for the thumbnailing of these types in the 'achives' page. but that's another story...

it's case sensitive. so you have to define .jpg if the files on the ftp are .jpg
The .JPG won't appear unless you rename all your files extensions to lower case.

i'm not a php expert, but i can do some good copy-pasting of code; is there an extention or 'snippet' of code that can fix this to be BOTH?
if (.jpg)) {
blah,blah;
} elseif (.JPG) {
blah, blah
}

of course this is a good solution for those that manage there own folderblog via FTP. but it is such a wonder, easy method of photo posting, that i would very much like to use it in a community project. thus it requires a non-ftp/within the php coding method of solving this simple issue.
is .jpg AND .JPG really such a huge amount of work to implement as a standard?
i fail to see a downside of allowing both.
