Using tools to upload images easily

1. Add One by One - this is the traditional way of adding a list item, you can add a title, description, etc.
2. Batch Upload Images - upload up to 20 images at a time using this feature. It will automatically add the images to the list without titles or descriptions.

More on how you upload using each type is below.
