Certainly every file is not linked directly in a web page?  

Why not keep links in a database that point to the correct location on disk
for the images themselves?  Then all you need to do is query the database
for a timestamp field that has changed and you know what you need to back
up, and at any time you can move the underlying files around and update the
links in the database...
