Image Archive Script

Hello,
I am working through a test Linux script from a website, and am running into some issues. The point of the script is to find image files throughout the system, copy them to one centralized directory,ignore duplicate images with the same name, and output a text file of all the images copied.
The script is below.


Code:
#!/bin/sh
if [ ! -d $1 ] ; then 
echo "Exiting due to non-existing $1"
exit #Check if source drive exists#
#
fi


if [ ! -d $2 ] ; then mkdir $2 #checking if destination directory exists #

else  echo -e "Usage::# phar image_path archive_path" #outputs helpful error message #

find $1 -name "IMG_*.JPG" # find files #
fi

for i in $1; do  #finds duplicate files and copies the non duplicate files.
    find $i -type f -name 'IMG_*.jpg' -exec cp {} $2 \;
    for j in $2; do
        find $2 -type f -name $i | while read filename; do if test "$i"="$j"; then mv $i new_filename; fi done
    done
done 

#then
#    mv -f "IMG_*.JPG.JPG"
#
#    else if  diff -q $file1 $file2  ; then echo "files are the same" ; exit # Checks if two files are the same.#
#    fi

# output a list of the files copied and moved
# readlink -f.-name"iMG".JPG>files_moved.txt

Thanks for the help.
