Or a combination of the two...

ansel/hash/full/image
ansel/hash/created/image_(screen|thumb|micro)


That would keep the originals in their own directory (that's all that 
really relevant anyway, and makes for easier backup... the screen and 
thumbs can easily be recreated) and the created images in their own 
directory.  Though I'm not married to the idea or anything.  I do like 
the idea of keeping the full size images separate for backup purposes, 
however.
