Answer 1

You can do that with a little CSS. In your copy of the upload.aspx, add a content editor web part to the bottom of the page and add the following CSS snippet. You might want to play with it by removing and re-adding each line to get exactly what you want.

This snippet will strip out a lot, it will only leave the title and the buttons, and will work on a pop-up modal dialog. If you are not using a modal dialog remove the "html.ms-dialog" from all of the lines.

<style>
 html.ms-dialog #s4-ribbonrow, 
 html.ms-dialog .ms-cui-topBar2, 
 html.ms-dialog .s4-notdlg, 
 html.ms-dialog .s4-pr s4-ribbonrowhidetitle, 
 html.ms-dialog .s4-notdlg noindex, 
 html.ms-dialog .ms-descriptiontext,
 html.ms-dialog #ms-cui-ribbonTopBars, 
 html.ms-dialog #s4-titlerow, 
 html.ms-dialog #s4-pr s4-notdlg s4-titlerowhidetitle, 
 html.ms-dialog #s4-leftpanel-content {
  display:none !important;
 }
</style>

Answer 2

You can add class="s4-notdlg" in the ribbon div in the master page. And open the Ipload.apsx in the popup. The above mention class will prevent to open ribbon in the popup. It will hide the ribbon in the upload.aspx in the popup. http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/eee64d30-6bcc-4287-b883-a9319a85c799/editting-css-classs4pr-s4notdlg?forum=sharepointgeneralprevious
