Mark,

I don't know if this would work for you, but I just created sub-folders 
inside the folder I identified as my filePath so that I can keep the images 
for a given wiki separate from the others.  You just need to make sure you 
add the subfolder to the image's address in the tiddler you're putting it 
in.

I hope that made sense, and was helpful.
