change directory of saved screenshot to another folder

Hi I have a paperwhite 2. I use the app "draw" and creates screenshots which is saved in the root directory of my kindle. I would like to review them with the imagegallery app but the app only shows images from the folder named "images". How can I change the directory for the saved screenshots to the image directory?

So -
How are you creating the screenshots?
Two finger touch in screen corners?

yes, I save screenshots by putting to fingers on the screen corners. one finger on the top right corner and one finger on the bottom left corner.

That would mean making changes to the operating system.

Do you have KUAL installed?
How about a 'move pictures' button?

yes I have kual installed. "move pictures" button - that would work. Could you also explain how you are doing it? I would like to learn just a little

Hmm, IIRC I actually made someone a "move pictures" button a while back...

Let's see if I can find it again. Having to reimplement a one-line bash script is a lot of work, you know!

EDIT: Yup, here it is, Screenshot Migrate.

I will try that. I also found this post with Knc1's comment about running apps in kual which answers my other question. Thank You for the help

Who? Me?
I'll take your word for it.
After the first ten thousand the posts begin to blur together.

- - - - -

There is another drawing application -
Aries 'KenMenu' (I think that is its name) includes RGBpaint.
That one defaults to putting screenshots into /images.
And it includes the usual sort of file management actions.

I don't recall if anyone has tried it on the newer (or newest) firmware.
