title: Managing images for a custom post type in Wordpress
body: <p>My custom post type is for describing companies. Each post will require 4 images of specific type and size:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Logo: 100 x 100</li>
  <li>Banner: 300 x 150</li>
  <li>Action image 1: 600 x 400</li>
  <li>Action image 2: 600 x 400</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I'd like to simply store the files in a directory structure like this underneath wp-content somewhere and bypass or improve on the media upload dialog:</p>
  
  <pre><code>/orgs
     /good-deeds-inc
        /logo.jpg
        /banner.jpg
        /action1.jpg
        /action2.jpg
     /stout-heart
        /logo.jpg
        /banner.jpg
        /action1.jpg
        /action2.jpg
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In creating the display and edit template, the attachment relationship would be assumed. I'd write a function that looks for the images in the expected place (plug of the custom post title). If not found a placeholder would be selected.</p>
  
  <p>I like the simplicity for the person charged with gathering images. Simply put them in the proper directory.</p>
  
  <p>My question is whether this simplification might lead to problems down the road. Perhaps there is a plug in that allows easier upload and management.</p>
