Thread:Project:Support desk/website transfer complications

I have an old site hosted for free here: http://poetrans.shoutwiki.com and I want to transfer it here: http://www.poetrans.org.

I had no trouble exporting the pages in the old site and importing them in the new one. However, the old hosting does not provide any way to export the images (and I have more than 400 of them) nor the database. They do not provide any FTP access.

I manually downloaded all the images using "Save image as...". It was a pain, but it's good to know I have the files! I then manually uploaded 70 of the images to the new site. I wonder if I can use FTP or any other fast way to upload the rest. I do have FTP access to the new site but I don't know the path to the image files.
