Finally made the upgrade from 400 megs to 2gigs of space... Problem is, how do i move my gallery from one site to another?

I dont have shell access on my old site and i do on my new one.

How can this be done?

Basically, the only thing you'll need to save is the album directory. You'll need to reconfigure gallery on your new machine. Download the albums directory via FTP from your old host. On your new host download a fresh copy of gallery and upload the albums directory. Chmod everything as required, configure gallery, run the secure.sh/bat script and you should be set

That is assuming you have all of <!-- BBCode Start --><A HREF="http://gallery.menalto.com/modules.php?op=modload&amp;name=phpWiki&amp;file=index&amp;pagename=Gallery%20Requirements" TARGET="_blank">gallery's requirements</A><!-- BBCode End --> on the new host. If not, it shouldn't be that much harder
