You'll have to use batch-add. Normally, batch-add doesn't allow you to add files that reside in the userpics dir. As a workaround, rename your current userpics dir to "userpics_old" and create a new folder named "userpics" within the "albums" folder (remember to CHMOD as suggested in the docs). You'll then be able to re-add all the existing files within your albums folder to your clean coppermine database.
While you're at it, you should consider upgrading to cpg1.3.3 (the most recent stable). The link you posted isn't very helpfull, as I can't read the asian language chars there. Post a deep link to your coppermine install instead.

how did you delete? Using the coppermine user interface?
