doing this in one step requires you to use a database tool like phpMyAdmin. Browse the cpgXXX_pictures table with it and delete the contents of the table (not the table itself).

i am now at "cpg130_pictures".
there is a button on the navigation just above the table called "Empty".
shall i click on it to delete only the pictures?

the controls differ from version to version in phpMyAdmin. If unsure, look this up in the phpMyAdmin documentation.

at phpMyAdmin when you are at "cpg130_pictures" click on "Empty" and all pictures of all albums are deleted leaving the albums untouched.

After that you have to delete the picture files in the albums directory (in the sub direrctories)
