    Check out the 'filespaths' plugin. I haven't used it personally, but
    it's supposed to make "directory structures" easier to work with.

    Mostly I just make the key look like a path, ie:

    /user1/filename.blah
    /user2/filename.blah

    ... and you can manage the collections in your application, or use the
    'listkeys' feature. Lots of options, none too terrible.

Awesome!
Another question. Is it better to separate images to a subdomain such as img.site.com <http://img.site.com> or is it ok to leave it in the original domain like www.site.com <http://www.site.com> ? I see that Livejournal.com <http://Livejournal.com> is using the img.livejournal.com <http://img.livejournal.com> subdomain. Trying to figure out what the advantages/disadvantages there are in both.

Browsers will only make a limited number of HTTP connections to a specific host. By using multiple hostnames, you increase the number of concurrent connections a browser will make. It is also useful to seperate static content from dynamic content because dynamic content servers typically are heavy weight (Apache w/mod_perl or mod_php) compared to static content servers (lighttpd, nginx, etc).
