I'm really not sure if this is a problem with remote, PHP or Gallery. I'm unable to upload more than 10 or 11 photos at a time. Gallery remote just stops before the upload of the next picture. Hitting stop and then restarting the upload lets it continue. I'm uploading stupidly large pictures so it seems that the limit is somewhere around 60MB. Any suggestions?

Please post a phpinfo link as described here, http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php/Gallery2:faq#What_information_is_required_when_I_ask_for_help_in_the_forums.3F

Try a different graphics toolkit like NetPBM or ImageMagick. GD sucks pretty much all around.

and you should first try upload from web browser, with immediate debug mode on. it gives you more debug output than applet upload.

http://www.affordable-afpers.co.uk/phpinfo.php for phpinfo. That won't be left lying around for long.

NetPBM was enabled for a while but it didn't seem to get along with having 6MB Jpegs chucked at it and errored quite a bit. Uploading from uploaded files area doesn't fail. It successfully managed 30 files, but doesn't read the rotate information that the camera stores in Exif. Getting there.
