## Description

This plugin tries to fix things when you use GD for resizing. Currently when an 
image got resized it will lose all EXIF/IPTC data what can be a pain for some people.
When using this plugin you will retain some of the data by storing it as IPTC data.

## Installation

 1. Upload the folder improved-td-image-editor to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Done!
