Certainly every file is not linked directly in a web page? |

Why not keep links in a database that point to the correct location on disk |
| 12 |
for the images themselves? Then all you need to do is query the database |
| 13 |
for a timestamp field that has changed and you know what you need to back |
| 14 |
up, and at any time you can move the underlying files around and update the |
| 15 |
links in the database... |
