I like keeping my computer organized but it has gone a little out of control.
I organized my photos but have yet to organize my documents. But mainly I want to know how you organize your photos? Cause I have a folder for gimp "creations" and I always keep the editable file as well as a png right next to eachother. But eventually this will get out of hand. I realize this thread cant get to much depth but I appreciate your help. A clean freak, -Joseph |

I do the same thing. I have a "Photoshop" folder where I save the PSD & PNG just incase I want to edit the PSD again. And I keep my personal pictures separate.

I even boil my organization down to subjects.
Creations >> Icons >> Heroes ; Gossip Girl ; LOST ; Misc There are more too, those are just the only ones I can think of without looking at it. I'm not too OCD. It just makes finding things easier. |

Dude...whats up with you emberfly? Chill?! And quite with the random spam everywhere.
I can never manage to fill my hard drives with stuff... How much space does your itunes and stuff take up? I have like 5gb in the music folder and my whole pictures folder is like 2Gb  I want to be able to use my 160Gb external hard drive... |

I heard you can run itunes with all of your music on a external hard drive. So no computer space is used. |

Just a few programs and stuff. |
