      How do you organize your libraries for your materials / components / styles for quick and painless navigation?

            Ouch, that's quite a list there. Thx for the sample, I'm working on organizing mine at the moment and it is quite a task (the deciding bit, what goes where) as sometimes one item can go in more tha one location.

              I did not show it but under the Plant Materials I have sub-folders:
              3D shrubs
              2D shrubs
              2.5D shrubs
              3D trees
              ...

              Tom should like to see that πŸ’š

                Juju,
                My layout is somewhat like Eric has. The main texture folder has 374 folders & sub folders which contains 36,442 files and my component folder has 1,084 folders & sub folders which contains 38,005 files. I know a bit extreme but this is a collection of about 11 years. The funny thing about this is that I know where everything is.
