then upload using the special page MultipleUpload (unfortunatly, by hand) I'm sure a Bot of that caliber would be the quickest option for the more tech savvy, but for the rest of us getting a file list from Special:Allpages (assuming the Wiki doesn't have thousands of images), using a text formatter (like Text Mechanic for example) to format the files as links, posting them in a sandbox, and using your browser's Page Info to download en masse can get the job done in under 5 minutes. The downloading portion that is. Uploading 20 by 20 via MultipleUpload is still painful. hm... thats a cool way... should have thought of that :)
