...
http://www.somesite/first/folder_a/10.jpg
http://www.somesite/first/folder_b/01.jpg
http://www.somesite/first/folder_b/02.jpg
...
http://www.somesite/first/folder_b/10.jpg
http://www.somesite/second/folder_a/01.jpg
http://www.somesite/second/folder_a/02.jpg

http://www.somesite/second/folder_b/01.jpg
http://www.somesite/second/folder_b/02.jpg

Press the button "New...". In the first turn select the substitution "Numbers..."
"Min value" - starting value from which counting begins.
"Max value" - the last value. When reaching this value, the value of the following substitution increases (for example {2} - from 'a' to 'b') if it exists and counter will be "Min value". Counting will be started again. If it is the last substitution in the list, downloading will be completed. The rest of substitutions work in the same manner.
"Interval" - number of counter increasing, for example, if interval - 2, the counter will be increases as follows: '1', '3', '5'...
"Number of digits" - quantity of figures in substitution. For example: digits - 1: 1, 2, 3..., digits - 2: 01, 02, 03 .. 10 ... 120, digits - 3: 001, 002, 003.
