For heaven's sake! DO NOT multiply folders unnecessarily. It is a PAIN. And sorting things by vendor is about the most useless way of doing it. Why should I want a folder specifically for things made by (for sake of example) PhilC? Am I ever going to look for something in that way? Am I going to look at a figure and say "What's needed here is something by PhilC, fortunately I have these all set apart?" No, I'm going to say "What's needed here is a DRESS" and I'm going to want to look in a folder called Dresses where there may be dresses made by all sorts of people. With all due respect to PhilC and all the other great modellers out there, frankly, I don't care who made it, I care about what it is and whether it fits the picture I'm working on. It's like these stupid software houses who would like your start menu to run "Program files/ Supersoft/ Supersoft Programs/ Supersoft Graphics Programs/ Superpaint" whereas anyone with a bit of intelligence will arrange it something like "Program files/ Graphics Programs/ Superpaint".
