It's very easy to move the multimedia files using the Multimedia Backup in Legacy - the only problem is if you have stored the pictures somewhere other than in the c:\Legacy\ sub-folders for multimedia files, then you will have to work a little harder to reconnect them in Legacy since the file paths on the other computer will be different.
Full instructions for restoring the Multimedia File backup is on the Legacy website at www.LegacyFamilyTree.com > Help Center > Tips > Backing up and Restoring Family Files. This is also accessible through Legacy by clicking on the "Tips from the Experts" link in the Support section of the Legacy Home tab.
