add media items programmaticaly

Hi!

I have an image for example c:\Image1.jpg.

I need to upload this image to umbraco media folder programmaticaly.

P.S. I make migration of one site to umbraco. and I have directory of images, that I need to upload in media. I know about ZipUpload pack? but I need to do some additional actions when I upload files, that's why I can use ready pack.

Can u give me the pogram code of how to upload single file to media folder and create media item in umbraco.

i know how to create media item usint Media.MakeNew, but I dont know, how to move file to Media\{someId}\filename. What is this folder {someId}? Can u give full code.

Hope the posted code will get you on your way. Let us know how your doing :)

// Adds to media section in umbraco
                string fileId = doc.getProperty("imageAlias").Id.ToString();
                string directory = Server.MapPath(string.Format("/media/" + fileId + "/"));
                string filef = fileUpload.FileName;
                var ext = filef.Substring(filef.LastIndexOf(".") + 1, filef.Length - filef.LastIndexOf(".") - 1).ToLower();
                var fileNameWOExt = filef.Substring(0, filef.Length - (ext.Length + 1));
                string _fullFilePath = directory + filename;
                //Adds a thumb for viewing in umbraco
                string fileNameThumb = _fullFilePath.Replace("." + ext, "_thumb");
                thumbBMP.Save(directory + fileNameWOExt + "_thumb.jpg");

                System.IO.FileInfo fi = new FileInfo(_fullFilePath);

                Media m = null;
                m = Media.MakeNew(
                    fileNameWOExt, MediaType.GetByAlias("image"), User.GetUser(0), 1377); //last property is the id of parent folder
                string mediaPath = "/media/" + fileId + "/" + fileUpload.FileName;
                m.getProperty("umbracoWidth").Value = newWidth.ToString();
                m.getProperty("umbracoHeight").Value = newHeight.ToString();
                m.getProperty("umbracoFile").Value = mediaPath;
                m.getProperty("umbracoExtension").Value = ext;
                m.getProperty("umbracoBytes").Value = fi.Length.ToString();

this is my code

Media m= Media.MakeNew("99", MediaType.GetByAlias("image"), author, 1072);

m.getProperty("umbracoFile").Value = "http://localhost:31235/media/6014/"+"0_big"+".jpg";

How I can add thumb for this image? I create 0_big_thumb.jpg near 0_big.jpg, but I dont see thumb on umbraco. Maybe I need to registrate thumb image, but how?
