    Does this sound like you?

    I've organically grown and structured my content library and its now just a mess!

    I've lost my stuff!

    I'm afraid to break things by moving and renaming files,

    What category folder system do I use?

    How do I organise another hard drive to store my content?

    An error occurred while reading the file, see log files for more details

    Once you plan and organize your content library, you can end up creating your artwork much faster, because finding content is now easy. Inserting new content into your system will be just as fast.
