Don't use the outdated coppermine version cpg1.3.x when starting from scratch. Always use the most recent stable (currently cpg1.4.6).
I have no idea what "myspacegold 8.0" is, but I guess it contains a pre-configured coppermine install. Such software isn't recommended at all - they tend to be buggy and outdated. Install coppermine as suggested in the docs (http://coppermine-gallery.net/demo/cpg14x/docs/index.htm) after having download (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=89658)ed the most recent version.
What should the config recommendations look like? The config options exist because they need to be configured to make coppermine work. The settings for thumbnail size, intermediates etc are already populated by default, so you can consider those entries as fail-safe options. Please read the docs, they should tell you what the options are being used for.
