I was wondering about folders etc, found this little snippet
"If you store your photos on CD, you'd want no more than 640 megabytes
of pictures in one master folder; if you store them on DVD, you want 4
gigabytes of pictures in one master folder. Within the "master" would
be subfolders for each photo shoot, each memory card or each day of
shooting, however you break it down."
Don't know-how realistic that is as I don't burn to dvd, but I always
put my pics in folders.
