So for all my work I put in trying to get the Silverlight uploader to work, it wont work. Worst part is, I'm not sure why.

But digging into it this morning I found a few errors in coding causing it to not work in the "production" envrionment. I also found a possible bug in when it was checking the user name a collection was registered under and the currently logged in user. I've made adjustments to correct that as well.

One last thing that I fixed was not really broken, just annoying. I had the uploader set to upload between 2 and 5 images at a time depending on the users roles. But because not all files are the same size it would finish one and skip around while it was uploading a larger file. This caused images to upload out of order. and as a result the image gallery made no sense. So to avoid this I made it so it uploads one at a time for all users.

I've yet to try this from outside of the house so I'm not really sure how well it's going to fair using web services to process that uploads but I think it should be ok.

So if you've yet to try it (not that it worked before) give it a try. You can get to it by opening our collections, selecting a collection and clicking the 'Upload Multiple Images' link on the right. After it's done uploading you can click the 'Update New Files' link in your collection (or collection list) and make comments, tags and save them.

Enjoy.
