Hi. I'm using SolarSentinal and Drupal 6.19. http://es.earthednet.org
What I'm wondering is the best place to put user uploaded files.  
Currently, I have specified the /sites/default/files  folder. This is  
the setting in the administer->file system configuration. The  
temporary directory is set to tmp.
So, when users, who is allowed to create new content and upload images  
are active, do I get a folder with a bazillion images in it? Is there  
a way of cleaning house? I notice that duplicate images get a suffix  
that keeps filenames from being duplicated.
It seems odd that the uploaded images from the entire site would all  
end up in a single folder.
Perspective would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Bill
