User refer to a image - How do i do that?

[fotoshopper]

Hi,

Starting situation:
Have 800 users from an ex- phpbb-4images combination. 
I want to converting to a Joomla-SMF-Coppermine Combination.

What I realize:
I have integrate the users in Joomla, convert to the smf-board an integrate an empty coppermine-gallery with the bridge.

Now I want to convert from my old 4images Gallery to coppermine.
I know there isn´t any bridge so I must go by feet and put the images from a user one by one in the coppermine gallery.

But how I can do this?
I create categories and albums. NOw I want to upload the images and refer them to the specific user who upload it in the 4images gallery. The user are still there. The only problem is the refer.

Who can help me?

What you need is not a matter of bridging (read up what bridging actually is in the coppermine documentation), but converting. Moving from the bridging sub-board to the misc sub-board.
There's no converter available to convert stuff from 4images to coppermine. You'll have to manually edit the database (if you really know your way around) or come up with a converter script.
I'm sorry, this is really not easy, but beyond the scope of what you can expect from free support. If you really need this, you'll have to code it yourself or hire someone to do it for you.

Thanks for your answer.

I know that there are no converter.

The only thing I want is to upload images instead of the users.

Any solution there?

I can make a fast upload over the coppermine-batch function but then I have the images in my admin-account.
I want only assign the images to the specific users.

In 4images is there for example a form-field where I can choose any user.

The description and Keywords can I copy.

Changing the ownership of a file uploaded by the admin can not be accomplished using Coppermine's user interface. You'll have to edit the database accordingly. Use phpMyAdmin or similar, edit coppermine's pictures database, find the entry that corresponds to the file and change the owner ID and name.
