I'm not 100% sure how this extension works using Flash, but presuming a loop of some kind, it would be great to add an ini setting 'SetCaptions' which when set to 'enabled' broke the loop, allowed the user to input a caption for the current image, and upon hitting a button labelled 'next' or 'continue', continued the loop.

An alternative would be to check if a file named 'captions.txt' existed in the same directory as the bulk-images being uploaded. The code would interpret each newline of text as the caption for each image.

This requires a bit of work on the part of the user.

Yet another idea would be to use the filename as the default caption, and along with the .ini setting above, split any non-alphanumeric character into spaces.

Thanks.
