Answer 1

In the htaccess file in your document root, try:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^((((([0-9])[0-9])[0-9])[0-9])[0-9]+)\.(jpe?g|gif|png)$ /$5/$4/$3/$2/$1.$6 [L]

You can add a ,R=301 in the square brackets if you want to redirect the browser so that the URL in the address bar shows http://some.url/1/12/123/1234/123456.jpg

If you want to put these rules in server/vhost config, add a / after the ^ in the rewrite rule’s regular expression.
