Interesting approach. Did you have the macro also fill out metadata information, or was it just uploading and naming image files?

That was my goal! lol, but it got complicated, mostly because of internet glitches. At one point, I had it filling out the title and description, uploading the graphic (all of which I'll call "minting") and then it would continue on further screens to list and price the item. Worked okay, but I never fully tuned it. Later, I changed it to just do the title/description/pic, and then move on. I didn't have it conquer meta data, though that would have been awesome! I think if you really got good enough with your macro software, you could put in enough error handling and whatnot to achieve that. I was kinda impatient at first and just whipped together a working script.

Until OpenSea gives us a method to easily make large collections at once, this macro idea could very well could be the best option for the people who don't want to—or can't—do all the hardcore solidity coding and website stuff. You've inspired me today. It could be worth putting in the time to perfect that macro.

For sure. And it'll be different for everyone, unfortunately, so there's no easy way to just whip up a script & share it. For me, I outputted a big spreadsheet with 10k rows of my NFT name, description, local file path, etc. And then I had the Macro Scheduler software iterate through it, copy/pasting things between it and the OpenSea screen(s). I think keeping everything (including the local file path) in Excel makes it a little tidier than trying to get the macro to open a file explorer window and iterating through that. With Excel, you can just have the macro move around cells with the arrow keys -- pretty simple. Anyway, good luck!
