Python - Downloading map tiles

I'm fairly new to programming and this is the 2nd thing I've done in python.

This code creates a /Tiles directory in the folder where the script is ran, then it makes an X (8) number of folders inside of /Tiles.

Inside of those 8 folders it makes a Y number of subfolders and downloads Z number of images per Y folder.

Y and Z are the same number but change depending on the X folder.

X folder 0 contains 2^0 Y folders and 2^0 Z images per Y folder.

Next X folder 2^1, etc until 8 folders or 2^7.

Any general or python specific advice for a newbie?

Also, any design advice?

I was thinking of having a loading bar of some sorts because it's ~20k images and was looking into this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3173320/text-progress-bar-in-the-console

But in the end decided I just want to finish this up since I was done with the main functionality.

[..] means the code is on the same line but I made a new one for the purposes of reading here without scrolling.

Thanks.
