[FX.php List] PHP Batch uploading

[Dale Bengston]

Bob, I think what is suggested here is the photos get zipped so  
there's one upload, but as part of the upload process, your PHP would  
unzip the images and process them individually.

I know zipping by the client is an extra step, but at least that would  
allow for a single uploaded file. Maybe okay if the un-zipping is  
automated?
