You should be able to just copy/paste the old image directory and be good
since all the data is in backup

Good idea! Will need some cleanup, but a good plan.
It worked after a fashion. The downside is that none of the photos made
it, but the
basic structure is there, minus a lot of customization.
When I’ve watched my backups trundle down the directories, I’ve noticed
the photos seem
to be stored in (inscrutable directories) yet by their original names. If
I have to, will I be able to
go through manually grabbing and re-inserting them?
