it looks like you have uploaded photos which already have a 'normal_' prefix, as the thumbs are 'thumb_normal_....'
It also looks like you are uploading by html.  You as admin are advised to upload by ftp, into folders you create in the albums folder, and then batch add.

Well it's not 'bad'as such, but all the pics will go into 1 folder, in your case '10002', as you are using user 2 to upload them.

You can upload as many as you like by ftp, and arrange the folders as you like for easy admin.  There will also be less chance of problems with file name conflicts.

But that is a side issue, to why you have pics with both prefixs, 'thumb_normal_'.

As coppermine uses these to create the relative pics, you should not upload pics you have already given the normal prefix by html.
