I had a folder that contained 15000 images, i decided to put them in 10 folders.

The initial folder url where i had my 15000 images was : 

www.mysite.com/images/games/

And the new folders’ urls are :

www.mysite.com/images/games/1/  
www.mysite.com/images/games/2/  
www.mysite.com/images/games/3/  
www.mysite.com/images/games/4/  
www.mysite.com/images/games/5/  
www.mysite.com/images/games/6/  
www.mysite.com/images/games/7/  
www.mysite.com/images/games/8/  
www.mysite.com/images/games/9/  
www.mysite.com/images/games/10/

How can I redirect my images to match their correct folder to get rid of 404 errors?

    Given your expansion in the comments above:

    I know which images go to which folder, but its a big list

    I suggest putting that list in a text file, and using find and replace (or awk?) to transform that list into mod_redirect rules, e.g.

    Redirect /images/games/oldname /images/games/8/oldname

    Then paste those into a configuration file. If there’s no actual algorithm that determined how these got sorted into directories, there’s no program that can redirect requests, because it would require a formula to work from.
