I could be mistaken, but form uploads have quite a few drawbacks:
- no progress bar
- php has a time-out, so if you upload a lot at once the script could be broken. or it just takes ages and the user doesn't know whats going on

pro of an applet:
- an applet would allow to resize images before uploading
- compressed data saves bandwidth
