My Dilemma

It's been some time since I've actually written a theme, so I want to take a quick moment to talk about where I want to go next with all these wonderful tools.

I've written an article on backup strategy a while ago and I just wanted to share a quick tip with you. As a photographer I have to deal with big files constantly and I'm keeping them in a folder structure like this: year - folder with full date (year month day - name of shoot). This makes it easy for me to backup the files and to find shoots, because file viewers sort the folders by file name so they appear in the order they were shot.
