if you can swing it, sandbox the directory they are uploading to by itself,
so all they can do is screw up the files they are uploading.  And make sure
you have an agreement saying you'll charge them if for the time to fix
anything they screw up.  I've done this type of thing for a couple sites,
and it's generally worked pretty well, though I've always had reasonably
competent users, just not particularly web savvy.

  Has anybody had experience with having a non-techie upload files (in this
  case photos) to their website?

  To save $100 the site-owner would rather use a site that doesn't permit
  CFFILE.

  Just wondering if there's been any disasters.
