That's why, it's copying over everything picturewise, there are some folders which have the thumbnails in for quickloading in the gallery.
Best bet is to use pc companion or by manually opening folders to find the dcim folder and find the full images inside there.

Internal storage (or if set to use sd,external sd card) DCIM/100ANDRO is the full size picture folder.
