Issue Summary
I probably am not turning on something right... but I want to be able to upload multiple images at once in one post to a Gallery. So for 3 or 4 gallery's all I have is 3 or 4 posts. Also any idea's on how to possibly turn the images into links?

#1
when you use imagefield, there is an option to set to unlimited (for input, versus just 1 or 2 images or whatever), this will present the 'add another item' button when viewing the image upload button
#2
Should there be a one-to-one relationship between an image and node for Simple Gallery? That is should each node contain one and only one image? Or, is it okay for the CCK content type (created in step 1) to contain many images?
I can see where if a node is allowed to have many images, that would make bulk uploading easier if using image_fupload. But, it may be a problem with taxonomy since it's possible a bulk upload may contain images that don't all belong to a single taxonomy term.
#3
You are correct. In order for simple gallery to work properly there must be a 1-to-1 relationship between images and nodes. This is due to the way taxonomies count their children in order for the module to display the proper amount of images. I'm sure it is possible to force it to check each node prior to processing, but this would be a major code change which I am happy to accept patches for.
#4
I take back what I just said. I did a major code update and decided against my better judgment to include support for multiple image nodes in 6.x-1.5. I have only done minor testing and hopefully it works for all scenarios.
