The location of the media should be in the gallery directory. All you have to do, is upload all media to this directory (note: you must upload media to a folder inside the gallery folder e.g. gallery/catergory1/ ) and using the Media Auto Detection feature in the admin control panel, add them to the database. Also, you can create new categories or upload new media to the server manually, using the Add New Category or Add New Media function in the Media Manager section of the Admin area.
