Hello. I was talking about this in the IRC chat room and they said I should post it here. Here is what happened:

I was using Gallery Remote and I put about 300 pictures into the program. I spent quite a while going through and adding comments (to approximately 150 pictures). I click on Upload Images and it appeared to work. I came back a few minutes later to check on the progress and it was still on photo one. The program was fully responsive, the only thing that was abnormal (besides the fact that it wasn't uploading anything) was that the progress indicator bar wasn't moving. I had to exit the program because it didn't upload any pictures and I couldn't cancel the attempt. I am not sure what bug could be causing this, that is why I am posting it here. If you can't find the bug, then it might be nice to just have a button in the window that cancels the current upload (so you can restart it without losing all your comments). I hope this helps your bug squashing efforts.

Thanks,
Andrew

Since the same thing happened to me a couple weeks ago, I share your pain at losing all this work. Sorry about that.

In the latest beta builds, I have fixed the source of the problem (if you're seing the same problem I am) and designed a way to save and load sets of pics, along with comments and all.

This only works if you're using 'ant run' to run CVS builds; it doesn't work with the .exe launcher, because I'm using a new library the launcher doesn't know about. You can modify the 'Gallery Remote.lax' file to include the new lib in the classpath.

GR will then automatically save what you did before it attempts to upload.

It would be nice, if Gallery saved a Comma delimited file BEFORE uploading... therefore it could look load the last known file (as it knew that the last upload was terminated unexpectedly).

Just my two cents

it saves it in an xml file, but I don't think it will automatically reload the info if the upload fails though.
