I'm not sure I see the problem. You can add any sort of subfolders to
Legacy/Pictures (I have around 800 in 4 levels) or set up a file
anywhere else on your system. The add picture, sound, and multimedia
screens allow you to browse to wherever you have your files stored and
Legacy does not care if they don't happen to be within the default
directories.

I recently bought a new scanner. I now have files of birth
certificates, death certificates, marriage certificates, newspaper
articles, military records, deeds, and on. Now that I use
ancestry.com, I have downloaded census records, World War I Draft
Registration Cards, and on.
I discovered in Legacy 6 that there are *only* three locations
where I can store these files: (1) Picture files, (2) Sound files, and
(3) Video files. It becomes worse, as (2) Sound files and (3) Video
files are stored, by default, in the Legacy root directory. (1)
Picture files are stored in a sub-directory named Pictures.
As the price of scanners drops and the ease of downloading census
records increases, we will want to, and be able to, store more and
more images/files in Legacy.
When one goes to Options/Customize/Locations, one sees the section
"Default location of picture, sound, and video files." For me, only
three locations is becoming insufficient in terms of *organizing* my
files in a *manageable* way.
Is it possible to incorporate into Legacy 6 an increased number of
"locations"? Examples might be:
vital records
birth records
military records
census records
