Can I upload media to a specific folder?

By default, media uploaded through the WordPress dashboard goes into a folder determined by the current date. For example: /wp-content/uploads/2011/09/. Once the media is uploaded I’m not seeing any options in WordPress to change the location of my file to something else.

Can I tell WordPress to place my media in a separate folder? Not all my media. Just ones that I specifically select.

1. Go to Dashboard -> Settings -> Media
2. Enter the desired location in Store uploads in this folder
3. Uncheck Organize my uploads into month- and year-based folders

This will specify the global upload location. To specify a per-file upload location, you’ll need to use a Plugin, such as WP Easy Uploader (not an endorsement, per se; it was just the first one I found).
