Copying the own database and contents to a new domain

[kenhirai]

I have a master with 12000 galleries and I want to copy everything to a new domain. I backup the master but it only has 120 mb, I do think the images are not included in the gzip. How possible can I backup the contents too? thank u.

You can copy images using dedicated tools like rsync for example.
It's way better.

You can just zip the entire thumbs folder, upload it into the thumbs folder onto new server and ask your host to unzip it.Worked fine for me.

Good idea as well.
