The only problem is it takes forever to upload because I have to do bit by bit, I need a quicker way to do all of those. What is the best way to upload as many as pics as possible in as short amount of time as possible.

Did you read the manual/documentation on using batch upload?

If you have physical access to the server, - you could be flipping a harddrive between your source computer and the webserver, - like copy all images to the disc, - install in the webserver, - mount it, - and let CPG 'load' using the batch upload thingy where you point to the cataloque with the files and select the target album. The drive needs to remain in the webserver because thumbnails and all are created on the disc.

Other than that, - ftp them to the server, - and use batch upload, - I can't figure out a faster way to do that....

and 7 G. is still a hue amount of data.. do you have zillions of files, - or are they hires ?.. Maybe you can batch-convert them to something smaller with Photoshop or something
