Hi Nick,
  That's a cool project. I've just ordered a new helmet camera which
has the ability to take photos continuously at 3 second intervals, so
I'd be keen to upload a *lot* of photos - have you thought about an
interface for that? Obviously doing them one at a time through a web
form is not anyone's idea of fun :)

(Note that they will also be all facing forward, so you may have to
see whether that fits in with what you're trying to do.)

Steve

This is now done, though note you cannot as yet *view* ordinary photos. However, you can upload two linked photos (one facing one direction, one facing the other) to the site.
