[Clipart] multi files upload announcement

[Bassel Safadi]

Hi all,
after few days of hacking and a lot of coffee. we are proud to release
the new multi files upload on OCAL
it's a form that allow you to upload unlimited number of files at
once, each file must be under 10mb, also you can add keywords and
description to the uploaded files ( they all will have the same
keywords and description) so you can later edit the titles, keywords,
and descriptions..

to access the new feature please go to:
http://www.openclipart.org/multiupload

it's still don't have link in the homepage ( sort of still testing and
want to hear your feedback first )

it's highly recommended to use firefox 3.6.2 for the multi upload
thing. so the drag and drop function will work perfectly. but the
function works on other browsers thanks to plupload jquery plugin
which is used as interface, while aiki handles the uploaded files.
the front end uses html5 and fail back to flash, gears, and browser
plus depending on what you have. so it will work on almost any browser
except IE6 which I dropped support deliberately for obvious reasons.
also I dropped support for silver light support ( which come default
with plupload ) also for obvious reasons ( I don't trust it ).
ok one last thing is the multi upload have chunking support i.e when
you upload files larger than 1m it will convert it to chunks and
upload it so the upload manager will be more stable for slow
connections..

looking forward to hear your feedback

Cheers,
