is it beneficial to place pictures in separate folders

My website, an animal rescue adoption site, has dozens of pictures in it. I
now have the pictures separated into 2 folders -- only because it's easier
for me to locate them that way. Each of the folders has about 100 pictures
in it. In the FrontPage manual, it mentioned something about the speed of
loading pages being increased if there were folders made that separated
bunches of files. Does anyone know if this makes a difference?
Thank you.

I don't know about speed in loading, but just for convenience alone, its a
good idea

I use this structure
images
display
thumbnails

images contains my large pictures (about 200 pics)
images/thumbnails contains the thumbnails of the large pictures (ditto)
images/display contains gifs etc which are used to pretty up a page (about
100)

In the HTML I refer to them as
images/trevor.jpg
images/thumbnails/trevor.jpg
images/display/info.gif
etc.
 
Thank you, that is helpful.
