Hello.

Any attachment\_fu users out there that have updated their code?

The file system storage scheme has changed. The old way:

RAILS\_ROOT/public/my\_models/5/blah.jpg

Is now more like this:

RAILS\_ROOT/public/my\_models/0000/0005/blah.jpg

Has anyone written a script or anything to migrate between the two?  
All of my images are now broken.

Anyone already solved this?

Hunter
