 Re-sized images currently stores next to the uploaded image. This creates
 lots of mess at single place.


 == Situation ==
 If there are 1000 images in library, as after upload WP will automatically
 create 3 re-sized versions so 3000 images near the origanl is really
 messy.
 Right now there is no way to separate out original images.

 Re-sized images should be kept separately as those are not important for
 backup purposes if you have original images.

 == Idea ==
 We can have directory called "manipulated" or "manip" where we can
 replicate exact path to main image.

 '''Original Image Path:'''
 {{{/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/awesome-image.jpg}}}

 '''Resized Image Path:'''
 {{{/wp-content/uploads/manip/2013/09/awesome-image-1024x472.jpg}}}
 {{{/wp-content/uploads/manip/2013/09/awesome-image-300x300.jpg}}}
 {{{/wp-content/uploads/manip/2013/09/awesome-image-150x150.jpg}}}
