WARNING! Following Dennis' instructions could get you in big trouble IF a filename in one directory is simply "Mary.jpg" and an identically named file exists in another directory. I have simple filenames like page21.jpg for source citations. Sometimes I see german script on a page that should be in French. I'm still working on correcting them.
