It looks like each project has only one photo associated with it -- do you 
really need a separate folder for each project just to store a single 
photo? If you are worried about OS performance issues with large numbers of 
files in a single directory, you should instead do:

    Field('photo', 'upload', uploadseparate=True, autodelete=True)

web2py will automatically create many sub-folders to divide up the files.

Anyway, what you ask is tricky because the record ID is not known until 
after a record has been inserted, so instead of relying on web2py's 
built-in upload mechanism, you would have to manually manage the uploads 
after record insertion.
