The gallery has a web-based upload tool using Flash. Alternatively you can upload files directly by doing this:

This format is recommended:

./ski weekend in hemsedal/snow.jpg
|
|
./ski weekend in hemsedal/afterski.jpg
|
|
./trip to iran/beautiful girls in tehran.jpg
|
|
./trip to iran/mosque in yazd.jpg
|
|

|
|
|
|
Every time you manually add photos to disk you must scan by visiting /photos/scan
|
|
|
|
In future releases the scan will be automated.
