Hey Guys,
       Is it possible to modify the script so that the thumbnail pictures (the files labeled Thumb_*.*)  and the normal pictures (the files labeled Normal*.*) can be saved in a different directory, sub directories, or possibly even another directory that has the same original structure as the directory where the originals live? I am trying to make it easier for my server to backup the original photo files, but not back up "redundant" info. I know that the Thumbs_ and Normal_ files aren't redundant, but backing them up in addition to my origianl files would add somewhere around 2GB and growing.  Any light on this subject would be of great assistance. Bye the way... cheers to everyone who contributes to this project. Coppermine rocks!  Thanks,

if the server is yours to administer (at least shell access needed) - no matter if you're on Windows or Lunix, you can easily create a backup job that skips the files prefixed with "thumb_" and "normal_", making it backup the full-size pics only.
