What is the best way to bulk upload images? I've been looking for some solution to just use imagecache but I can't just create one node for every image. It would take me all day. Are there any other good solutions and what are my options. I've been looking but haven't yet found anything that is straight forward and simple. Thx.

I also wondering about ways to view galleries? I would like to have a jcarousel rotator with thumbnails and the large image above it. Unfortunately, the specks call for captions and details. I think that I might just make a paged gallery with the large photo size viewed in thickbox. Are there any other decent solutions?

Dynamic display block module options
We created this functionality with the dynamic display block module.
The tutorial: How to create an Advanced slideshow with multiple imagefield images in a node explains how to set this up. (It's more for advanced users)
When you have no experience with the dynamic display block module you can have a look at the
demo site other tutorials or the video tutorial first.
Also have a look at our working examples of Slideshow with multiple images per slide
Hope this helps you further to make this work or get some ideas from the tutorial.
If you can not make it work or have more question, please make an issue in the issue queue so I can help you better.
I bulk uploaded 100's of pics
I bulk uploaded 100's of pics by creating a new folder and just using my FTP to upload into the drupal root, then used the images importer to bring them into the image cache. The only problem I have is that these were all meant to be product images yet when I create new products I don't have the option of searching the cache only browsing my computer.
