redirect images folder with htaccess?

[thinks]

I have 2 image folders, one 0000006 and one 0000001. The first (newer) one contains all my images, but seems that some images in my site are still linked to the OLD folder (which I'd like to delete). Any ideas how to simply correct the image urls please? Htaccess rewrite maybe? If so, please be specific - I'm not much good with htaccess files !!
Cheers

If the file names remained the same, should just need the following in the htaccess:

RedirectPermanent /00000001 http://www.domain.com/00000006

Many thanks David! SO just to double-check please: no need for long url like www.yourwebsite.org/Merchant2/graphics/00000006
Is that correct- no need for it?

Oh, yeah if its a subdirectory you need to use the full path in the before and after:

RedirectPermanent /Merchant2/graphics/00000001 http://www.domain.com/Merchant2/graphics/00000006
