 > While we wait for arma to approve this. I kindly ask please make sure
 that re-organizing files wont break any links. I don't know if the right
 way to do is it via .htaccess file ~~or symlinks~~, but the files on
 media.tpo have been linked from so many random places online.

 I think reorganization I was thinking of will break some links, so I'll
 hold off on this.
