Help Control where files save

When I got my new Galaxy S3 4G LTE I had all my photos and music under one folder.

Now, 5 months later I have almost 12 folders under my Gallery. When I take a screenshot it uses a new folder. Every app I save a photo from gets its own folder. Bluetooth folder, bump folder...its basically folders everywhere!

I did recently notice my phone was saying everything under the phones internal memory. I have switched that and connected my phone to my computer and corrected all the files destinations. However as soon as I unconnect my phone it goes right back to millions of folders everywhere.

I want one photo folder, one video folder (which this doesn't even do), and one downloaded photo... THATS ALL!!!! Please tell me there is a way to achieve this.
 
File structure wise, it can be all one. However the gallery app is quite fickle and once it loads an image into one specific container, it will stay that way until you wipe the gallery data in the apps option withing settings and then repopulate it.
