Leave them alone.  From now on when uploading via FTP, upload into a new directory (for example, /uploads) in the /albums directory.

If you ever have to re-add the images in the /userpics directory to the CPG database, you'll have to move them out of that directory into the /uploads directory.
Do not send me a private message unless I ask for one.  Make your post public so everyone can benefit.

There are no stupid questions
But there are a LOT of inquisitive idiots
