1) Don't shout at us. Writing in all-uppercase is considered as shouting. Nobody likes to be shouted at.
2) Posting your email address is silly - it will only attract spam bots. There is no support by email here
3) There is a load of threads on this board that explain how to retrieve lost admin passwords
4) Posting a link to your site might help for a start.

Upgrade. Most recent stable release currently is cpg1.4.16. You're running cpg1.4.10. This means that you're running 6 versions behind.

:'( :'( :'( :'(I'M SO GLAD YOU ASKED THIS QUESTION...I'M STILL WAITING FOR HELP IN   GETTING A NEW PASS WORD MY SELF..NONE OF THE LINKS WORK AND I CAN'T SEEM TO BE ABLE TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO UPGRADE TO THE NEWER VERSION THAT IT SAYS YOU NEED TO GET A NEW PASS WORD....I'M SO UPSET WITH THIS...I HAVE SOME RE DESIGNING MY SITE GRAPHICS SO I REALLY NEED TO BE ABLE TO GET IN THERE AND UPLOAD SOME MORE STUFF..I'M SO EMBARRASSED WHEN I TALK TO HIM!!!!

You haven't posted there that you have issues figuring out how to upgrade. Stick to your orginal thread and reply there if you have something to say. I told you as well on the other thread that you're not supposed to write in all-uppercase, because that is being considered as shouting, and we don't like being shouted at. Show more respect if you want help. You'll get banned if you post another all-uppercase posting!

There are instructions how to upgrade - read the documentation that comes with coppermine (link available as well at the top of this screen). The docs contain a section as well that explain upgrades. If you have issues with that, you should explain what exactly doesn't work for you or what you have issues with instead of hijacking someone else's thread and complaining that you're still waiting for answers. When you posted the reply to the other thread, mine was the last posting in this thread, so it was not clear that you expected an answer here. Therefo, it's silly to say "I'm still waiting for help" - we haven't even been aware that you were waiting for help.
Your actual gallery link is http://www.queenbeeairbrushing.com/gallery/
You still have cpg1.4.10, most recent stable currently is cpg1.4.18. You're running 8 versions behind now, with an exploit against outdated galleries in the wild that is running rampage. So, instead of misbehaving, you really should do as suggested.
