You could provide a column of file upload boxes, but they would still have to
select each file. If that gets tedious, you may want to consider the option of
uploading a zip file which gets unpacked server side. Given that most of the
pictures would share the same metadata, they could enter all the data at
upload time.

You could use Java applets or MS ActiveX (or whatever it's called now) for
multiple uploads. Otherwise, you're stuck with uploading single files.
