This might be too specific for this list - if so, I apologize. Categorization of the old centre of A'dam - de grachtengordel - I'd suggest categorizing by gracht also. As it is now, the main categori is huge and hard to navigate, partially caused by filenames like "Amsterdam - Prinsengracht x.jpg" and "Amsterdam-Herengracht y.jpg". The added spaces causes P to come before H. Suggestion is at least to categorize additionally by e.g. Singel, Herengracht, Keijzersgracht, and Prinsengracht etc etc. This can make searching easier. And if these categories also grow too big, it should be possible to go "Prinsengracht (odd numbers)" and "Prinsengracht (even numbers)" if I remember correctly.
