I had no problem with Flickr::Upload... once I figured out that auth thing.
All the Flickr API bits talk about getting auth tokens, but nothing seems to
adequately explain how to get one. Finally I noticed that the flickr_upload
script included code to get one, so I used that.
I wrote a script to upload images from my jgal-created galleries to Flickr,
with tags, description, and other stuff:

Tagging was essential, since I was uploading about 2000 photos and needed to
identify what had been in what batch.
I'm hoping that this has prepared me for getting the backup working. I don't
want to lose any notes, set definitions, comments, and soo n.
