How to batch upload photos

[paperdesk]

Anyone know how to batch upload photos to the gallery? I looked around, did some searches but didn't find anything helpful yet. Also, even if I upload one at a time, it keeps telling me my photo is uploaded, but it doesn't appear in my member profile. Where's it going?

Thanks for any help you can share.

P.S. I did manage to upload 8 pix so far but it won't let me do any more, even though I have space in the account.

I believe that you need to save your photos as a zip file and then upload the zip folder itself.

ZIP file uploads allowed (50.00mb limit).

I'm trying that now, still doesn't seem to be working. Maybe I'll make the photos smaller or something.

A good rule of thumb for web stuff is:
700 pixels on the longest side
under 100kbs file size

Those are the settings I use for virtually everything and the photos come out just fine on the monitors.

I made the pix all 800x600 now and zipped them but it only added one picture not the whole folder

I deleted the one photo, and started over. This time is says "Your image was successfully loaded" and takes me back to the "My Photos" page, where there is . . . NOTHING!

Ah, the Matrix! Why didn't I think of that. I knew there must a proper place to post this. Thank you Alcina.

Sorry I didn't see this until now. I keep having no problems at all as long as I stick to loading Zip files under 2 Mb. I know, that's not what the instructions say, but it works. See my thread on that sub forum for info I am adding today about test loading I just did. http://www.scubaboard.com/showthread.php?t=164135
