Different folder AFAIK, since if you upload them yourself via the store they get assigned a number for your profile, ending up like 00001.jpg, another folder for 00001.png. Technically the same thing works for mod uploaded avs, but the change title mod action stuff the av you take into another folder based on mod actions and since to get a new av uploaded you need to upload the picture to the servers first via admins and they also don't sort it with numbers but instead like fluffiesbeautifulduckie.jpg it doesn't show up in the list.
The website just parses those numbers and not the folders, as it's blind towards them, so it doesn't work if your current av has another file extension than your last one, your current one was done by a mod, you "interrupt" your chain of store bought avs via mod ones or you swap file extensions a lot.
