This would take some work to keep them in subdirs. I see you already use the globstar ./** for recursion but didn't include the shopt -s globstar
This is bash4 feature, so let's write bash code and use all of it's nice features:

Code:

#!/bin/bash

(( $# == 2 )) || {
        printf 'Usage: %s <prefix> <ext>\n' "$0"
        exit 1
}

prefix=$1
type=$2
number=1
shopt -s globstar

for file in ./**; do
        [ -f "$file" ] || continue # only "regular" files

        printf -v new '%s%03d.%s' "$prefix" $((number++)) "$type"

        # skip to next file if name conflict
        [ -f "$new" ] && continue
        [ -x "$file" ] && continue

        mv "$file" "$new"
        echo "$file -> $new"

done

Code:

mute@thedoctor:~/temp/TheGreatGizmo$ touch IMG_{0000..0005}.jpg more/IMG_{000..0005}.jpg
mute@thedoctor:~/temp/TheGreatGizmo$ ls
IMG_0000.jpg  IMG_0001.jpg  IMG_0002.jpg  IMG_0003.jpg  IMG_0004.jpg  IMG_0005.jpg  more  script
mute@thedoctor:~/temp/TheGreatGizmo$ ./script
Usage: ./script <prefix> <ext>
mute@thedoctor:~/temp/TheGreatGizmo$ ./script file jpg
./IMG_0000.jpg -> file001.jpg
./IMG_0001.jpg -> file002.jpg
./IMG_0002.jpg -> file003.jpg
./IMG_0003.jpg -> file004.jpg

file001.jpg  file003.jpg  file005.jpg  file007.jpg  file009.jpg  file011.jpg  more
