Ilario,
That is fantastic that you have all of those pictures! I am not an expert on
mass uploading, but I feel sure there are people out there who can help you
prepare a mass upload in September.

I have used the Commonist tool for groups of about 20 pictures, and the way
I prepare is to rename the photo's soon after I take them with the proper
name and address of the object. Later I then use Commonist for the uploading
and just copy-paste the information. For this contest, you should include
the monument number. If you prepare all of your photos this way, then in
September you can mass upload using the name of the file as the description,
and the monument number as a tag. You need a simpler version of Commonist
for this I think that takes the info directly from the file name or some
text file that you have prepared beforehand.

It would be great if we could make a "mass-upload-tool" for people like you,
because I know there are lots of people out there who have the pictures, but
just don't know how to go about uploading them in bulk.
Jane
