File_column - store all files in one directory

I have successfully implemented file_column (found it really easy and
helpful) but how i have come up against a problem i cannot solve.

Instead of having my files saved in “public/model_name/column_name/id”
as is the default i would like to save all files uploaded in my model to
remain in the folder “model_name” like this
“public/model_name/apple.jpg” or public/model_name/carrot.jpg"

In other words i would like to by-pass saving them in sub direcory “id”
and have them all live in one happy folder together… as one…

Can anyone assist with this?

Thanks in advance!
