Creating a photo album with Movable Type

Movable Type does not come with the functionality to upload batches of images, however there are a number of tips and hacks available to create a Photo-Log type gallery.

The remit for my image gallery is:
  • Upload images in a batch
  • Resize images into thumbnails
  • Searchable
  • Set access rights to certain albums
  • Template driven
  • XML representation
Not much to ask, but the most important I guess is the batch upload, I dont want to spend ages uploading a file at a time.
