You could just add them to the media dashboard section. Or create them as datatypes (will need some more details on the controls to advise a correct approach).

If I understand correctly, then your are looking for a way to use the usercontrols the same way that you use images?

This can be done just by creating a Macro, that points to your usercontrol. On the macro you can allow users to insert it into for example a richtext editor, thus inserting it into a page.

Have I understood correctly?

Actually, we just need to find a way to add some "admin pages" to the backend "media" section.

It's a kind of digital asset management system, but the images are only used in other custom usercontrols (not in the page content)

so i'm looking for a way to add pages in the backend "media" section, so i don't have to create a seperate section for them.

I'd go with Tim's solution, build user controls to do whatever is required and register those as dashboard controls in the media section. All those 'admin pages' will be available to anyone with access to the media section.

Thanks, that worked fine for adding additional tabs to the media sections!

Is there also a way to have it included in the left area where all the media nodes are shown?

Rik,

In that case - as tim has pointed out - you could create a custom datatype and add that to a new or existing media type. 

Hope this helps.
