    Smugmug has:

    categories (which can contain sub-categories or galleries)
    sub-categories (which contain galleries)
    galleries (which contain photos)

    They only have these three levels. You cannot have more levels so you cannot match a file system that has more levels than that.

    I'd challenge you to think about your viewers. Do you really want your viewers to have to drill down deeply in order to find your galleries?

    It may seem more "organized" to you that way, but it's generally not the best way to display things on the internet. I'd suggest rethinking things and have fewer, broader levels. It's easier to find things scanning a bunch of galleries on a single screen for the right gallery name than investigating a bunch of different sub-categories trying to see which one has the gallery you're looking for.
