uploading images to gallery

Is there a way to upload to the gallery besides the individual selection from my computer? I store my images on my server and it is very tedious to add things to the gallery 5 at a time. It also says the uploaded images are available for use in posts, but I see no way to access them when composing a post.

look for "my photos" lower left in quick reply. Click on it and it will show you your gallery photos.

Thanks -- It is so pale on my screen, I never noticed it. I would have replied sooner, but notification emails have developed a life of their own again.
 
There is also a flash uploader that lets you pick all as a group. Much better and faster. There was a problem with it one some browsers but I have been using Chrome and it works great. Look on the right side of the screen and you should see it.
 
I will try it again -- had issues the last time using Firefox

I dropped IE years ago because of problems. Went to Firefox and loved it. Then started having problems with Firefox. Moved to Chrome and after getting used to it having a slightly different look I really like it better.

There are issues with FireFox -- tried it today and nothing was uploaded. It stalled out at 'Process' and would not continue. I went back to manual and it worked fine. I have no desire to switch to Chrome, so will stick to what works predictably.

I just tried the Flash Uploader and it absolutely does not work. Not for one image, not for five images and not for ten images. It simply does not work.

It allows me to select several images for upload, thenit tells me to hit "Submit" to process the files. Once I hit Submit and it goes to the next page, there are no images there.

I have to go back and select the "Standard Uploader" page and do five images at a time just like Wev said.
 
Did you actually go to your gallery and look to see if they are there? I use that upload method all the time but like I said it only works for chrome.

I've had the same problem with the upload stopping at the Process screen. Like Don stated, check your gallery images. I wound up with duplicates, sometimes even triplicates.

Except the flash up-loader. I have been using it with Chrome and it works great unless you change it late today.

Right, I meant as far as pointing something to a URL and the gallery software grabbing all of the images on another site. We'd run out of space quickly if that was an option though :)

I did check to see if they actually did upload and they did not. I had to revert to the standard uploader.
 
I just used the Flash up-loader and uploaded 16 photos at one time. As far as I can tell it only works with Chrome. Download Chrome and just use it to upload to the Gallery if you don't like Chrome.
