Yikes - the test user account you have posted is an admin account. Never do that on a public board - I could have used it to ruin your site. I could have left a backdoor there as well to take over your site later. I have edited out the password in your posting. Change that account's password immediately for security reasons.
Regular http uploads work as expected, see http://www.crimsonrmxpcommunity.com/coppermine/displayimage.php?pos=-1
Don't use spaces in folder names!
The files that you're trying to upload are not png files, altough they have the extension "png". They are bmp files that you just renamed. This is of course silly and will lead to the issues you have. That's why even the thumbnails on the batch-add screen display as black boxes. Sample pic for this is http://www.crimsonrmxpcommunity.com/coppermine/albums/uploads/character%20sets/Zelda%20World/Cow.png

Delete the entire structure within http://www.crimsonrmxpcommunity.com/coppermine/albums/uploads/ and then re-upload by FTP without spaces in the folder names (http://www.crimsonrmxpcommunity.com/coppermine/albums/uploads/character_sets/zelda_world/ instead of http://www.crimsonrmxpcommunity.com/coppermine/albums/uploads/character%20sets/Zelda%20World/) and without capitalization.

You have made every mistake that one could make, so I suggest you better get back to square one and try to read up the basics - how the web works, what image types to use, what names are web-safe etc.

I already told you that you have made several mistakes: spaces in folder names and files with illegal extension. Hence your issues. Fix all mistakes you made and you'll be fine.
