Any way to override the File Manager putting everything in a different directory?

Permalink
I've got a photogallery with a javascript I wrote to load the large version of the thumbnail and advance through a lightbox type gallery. It works great and is customized the way I want and it took quite a while to get perfect. Now I put it into C5 and it breaks because every image is in a separate directory when you load them through the file manager.

The script basically gets the location of the thumbnail image, scrapes off the '_thumb' part of the name and then it has the location of the large image all ready to load into the modal. The way C5 is set up makes this impossible, so I have no idea how to fix the problem other than somehow get all the images into one directory.

Hi!
Just use the concrete5 file manager and a gallery add-on and youre done!

No, that's a non-responsive gallery using a table that looks completely different.

I'm playing with the other free add-on, the Responsive Gallery right now. The thumbnail generation is atrocious (why would anyone want all different sized thumbnails in a grid?), so I guess I have to resize every single image if I want to use that one.

I would prefer neither of these—or any add-on for that matter, but I don't have a lot of time, so I am starting to modify all my javascript and CSS now so it won't conflict with this responsive one. Then, I get to resize all my pictures. This sucks.
