Authentication & authorization, secure file uploads for the end user, automatic image resizing post-uploads, language localization and translation in the GUI with the ability to add unlimited number of languages and locale variations, are just to name a few of the new features.

Great product to rapidly scaffold feature-rich PHP web applications. This is probably the only tool on the planet which shrinks images to a specific size after file uploads while maintaining other complex factors like form and file validation! Very cool!Ozar
