Directory structure: Photos - year -- ready to work --- <date>-<event | name | hint> --- <date>-<event | name | hint> --- <date>-<event | name | hint> ... -- worked --- <project name>-<date> --- <project name>-<date> --- <project name>-<date> ... Notes: <date> - example: September 9, 2006 goes to "20060909" to ensure text sorts work correctly. <event | name | hint> - basically, I add a string to the date for directories of files so that I can get a hint as to what the contents might be. it's free form. <project name> - is the name of some sort of working project, like "Ramsey exhibit - 20060128" is the master folder for my Ramsey exhibit, showing the date I started the project. I don't change original download file names. If there might be a name conflict, I download into separate folders. Tagging with Bridge and iView is how I manage sorting and finding stuff, not by the file system names and folders.
