Does it make any difference?
Let's say you're building a one page site w/ a bunch of links to galleries on the main page. Maybe 200 galleries. All of those galleries are on your (same) server. Is it better to use a different folder for, let's say, every 50 galleries or so, or to just use one folder for ALL the galleries? Make sense? I mean, does it slow down load time w/ all galleries in one folder? Or does it make any difference at all?

50 won't make a difference.
If you have 50,000 files in the same folder, it will slow down the access time for the files in that directory and it will use more resources on your server when it goes looking for those files.
I'm sure some tech person will be able to tell you the exact number of files that you shouldn't have more than in any one directory. -
