Has someone written a script to move all of the full size pics out of gallery? or is there a simpler way? I'ld like to do this so I can put them all on a CD for back up (and also to send a CD to my mom).

thanks for the info,
bernie

I don't know of any currently available scripts, but you basically need to
recursively traverse the albums directory. Use patters to filter out all *.dat
files, as well as *.sized.* and *.thumb.* files and you should have nothing
but the originals. Also, ignore the .users directory.
