Creating a folder in a folder?

Hi

I have some manga that are scanned as jpg files. This is a little difficult to explain...So I have the title folder and several other folders in that folder for each volume. When I transfer the title folder onto my tablet only the folders at the end of the directory, or those that only have the jpg files and NOT other folders show up. As a result, my gallery is flooded with individual volume folders and not the title folders

To put it simply, I need to know if there's a way I can create folders INSIDE another folder in the gallery app. I've been looking around the internet and this doesn't seem possible. So is there another gallery that provides this function? I'd like to organize all my manga under their titles, not by each individual volume regardless of what their titles are

Thank you
 
You might try QuickPic, it has some kind of explorer mode.
Tap on the gallery icon (next to the cam icon) on QuickPic's upper menu bar and choose Explorer.

Yeah quick pic will let you do it cause I have it. Have you tried making folder inside folder from your computer and then throwing SD card back on phone does that work or no?. I know my file explorer will let me make a folder inside a folder. Also is your tablet rooted or no?
 
I appreciate your answers you guys. So on my computer I have my mangas organized by their titles and then in those title folders I have volumes and then finally the jpg scans in each volume folder. When I transfer onto my tablet I transfer the title folder, which has the volume folders in them. But when I look in my tablet once the transfer is done, only the folder with the jpg files are shown in the gallery. If I look at my file manager app it has the folders within folders like how I transferred it. But in the gallery app the only folder that shows up is the last one in the chain, by which I mean the folder with the actual jpg files. I would like to be able to create folders in my gallery app and move other folders into them just so my gallery doesn't look so cluttered.

I am a Quickpic user. I know how to create a folder, but I can't seem to figure out how to move a pre-existing folder into that folder. I can only move individual pictures. Is it possible to move whole folders into the new folder?

Thanks again
