hmm well not, you made a great work in the right plugin, but the too big 
dialog was the one added to print option belonging to print images plugin

I do like the new layout!

Starting my netbook, will post pictures...

No that's right (at least what i wanted to)

hmm, maybe that is a bug i will check, but as far as scaling concerns
i'm almost sure it worked, so maybe it does not what you expected to
see...

The idea is to choose photos per page or -scaling/rotate/leave as it is- 
photo.
Because photos per page prints n photos using the atckins algorithm that
take the pictures as they are and not the the touched ones.

Well my will was to save the scaling setting, i mean if you cut only the last 
photo you'll have all cut to that size at the next plugin start if it is saved 
by default, but maybe you don't want to have that behaviour, for instance 
you cut 3x5 (cm) but you're used to get 10x15 normally...

But i'm open to discuss, you're the first real tester of the plugins :D

Thanks,
