Use phpMyAdmin to backup your database regularly. Or use the plugin made by Frantz. If this all does not ring any bells and you are hosted at a hosting company contact them to ask them if they backup your database on a regular basis.

I don't want to backup my gallery structure (tables) - i have already done that, but contest (images, titles, descriptions). this kind of data has to be stored in some specific file, common.
or are you trying to tell me that every time i upload new images, edit file titles/descriptions etc. i have to export my .sql file again with phpMyAdmin to keep my gallery backup up to date?

I'm telling you that Coppermine is a database driven website. Meaning it stores everything into the mysql database. From image names to comments to points given to pictures etc etc.

Making a backup of your mysql database is almost mandatory. Using the plugin made by Frantz can make that as easy as riding a bike. http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=40439.0 (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=40439.0)
