python - Uploading multiple images in Django admin

Question

I'm currently building a portfolio site for a client, and I'm having trouble with one small area. I want to be able to upload multiple images (varying number) inline for each portfolio item, and I can't see an obvious way to do it.

The most user-friendly way I can see would be a file upload form with a JavaScript control that allows the user to add more fields as required. Has anybody had any experience with an issue like this? Indeed, are there any custom libraries out there that would solve my problem?

I've had little call for modifying the admin tool before now, so I don't really know where to start.

Thank you to anybody who can shed some light.

photologue is a feature-rich photo app for django. it e.g. lets you upload galleries as zip files (which in a sense means uploading multiple files at once), automatically creates thumbnails of different custom sizes and can apply effects to images. I used it once on one project and the integration wasn't too hard.
