Per this Image Pickin' thread, DJ Chello does not have enough tropes to justify splitting him from Riley's folder, let alone an image, since the only entry in his folder is a repeat of Riley's (so it's like...0.5 of an entry, not even one). If he gets a more substantial folder of his own, then they can be split.
