Yep, that's right. Point curl at your browser cookie file, upload the
images, and curl will save the cookies in the browser cookie file.
Then crank up your browser and see what happens:

     curl -b cookiefile -c cookiefile .......

I wouldn't recommend having the browser running while you're uploading
- there'll probably be a file access collision that may result in no
cookies being saved.
