 Keep in mind the way WP generates these, though :) It makes the image on
 upload, so if we don't restore the resized from backup, we'll have to add
 in something to regenerate them all (which can get very CPU expensive).
 Not that the idea of putting them in a subfolder is bad (I kind of like it
 and it would help hosts who limit the number of files in a folder), just
 that for a backup I'd want all my images thank you :D
